Lorient vs Rennes Predictions

• Both teams have scored in seven of Lorient’s nine home league matches.
• Both teams have scored in each of Rennes’ nine away games.
• These two sides have kept just seven clean sheets between them this term.

A tale of two leaky defences

The hosts enter this clash just five points adrift of their opponents and also a spot in the European places. They come into this one off the back of a 3-1 defeat away to Marseille last time out and a return to home soil is not quite the comfort it should be with the hosts failing to win any of their previous five Ligue 1 games at Stade du Moustoir. They have at least been consistent scorers here having hit the back of the net in seven of their nine home outings.

The visitors have been an entertaining side on the road this season with all of their nine such matches witnessing both teams hit the back of the net and it sums them up as a side perfectly. They have the attacking flair going forward but it’s at the back where there are a number of issues that need to be addressed. They’re one of five sides yet to keep a clean sheet on the road this campaign and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see them ship at least once.

Goals at both ends to land once again

This looks as though it has both teams to score all over it and that will be our main fancy here.
