Lille Rennes betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This game has great importance for the home team, since a victory puts the team in a calmer position in the league table. In this way, we believe that Lille dominates and holds the best chances for goals, as they play at home and have more competent players both technically and tactically. On the other hand, Rennes is going through an irregular moment and in this game should act defensive. Having said this and taking into account these factors, betting in favor of the locals in this game is an excellent option.
