Rennes CFR Cluj betting prediction

The home team comes to his 3^rd round of Group and in the 4^th position, with 1 point won, after 1 draw and 1 loss. In their debut in this group stage they tied at home against Celtic by (1‑1). In the second round, they lost in an away match against Lazio by (2‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 15 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 5 wins, 7 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 22 goals scored and 16 conceded. They come to this match after a away loss against Monaco by (3‑2). Rennes has won 3, tied 5 and lost 2 of the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In 13 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Rennes comes for this match after a 3-2 away win, at Monaco arena, adding the ninth consecutive match in several competitions without proving the taste of victory. In the last fixture of the Europe League, the French lost against Lazio by 2-1. Even though they’re going through a gray stage, coach Julien Stéphan should play in his usual tactical scheme, helping to maintain the ball possession and the paused attacks, looking for the offensive reference Niang on most occasions, being this player the best scorer of the team with 4 scored goals. For this match, the home team’s coach won’t count on Jonas Martin and Guclu, both injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Edouard Mendy, Joris Gnagnon, Jérémy Morel, Hamari Traore, Benjamin Bourigeaud, Adrien Hunou, Faitout Maouassa, Eduardo Camavinga, Romain Del Castillo, Raphinha, M'Baye Niang.
