Paris FC vs Rennes Predictions

Hosts to entertain again

Rennes’ games have been goal-filled affairs this season, and Sunday’s clash with Paris at Stade Jean-Bouin is unlikely to be any different. No team has had more games with over 2.5 goals than Rennes in Ligue 1 in 2026-27, with five of their six matches going over the total.

Rennes are third in Ligue 1, two places above Paris in the table, with just a two-point gap separating the teams. Both have won more games than they’ve lost this season, with Rennes having four wins from their six games and Paris three.

Paris have avoided defeat in eight of their last nine home games in Ligue 1, but Rennes come into this match on the back of four wins from their last five league matches. However, they have lost three of their last four away games.

Rennes beat Auxerre 4-1 in their last Ligue 1 game, keeping up their recent pattern of matches with over 2.5 goals. Esteban Lepaul opened the scoring on the quarter hour and Boulaye Dia scored twice. Rennes were odds-on to win and have won all three matches in which they have been priced as favourites this season.

Six of Paris’ last eight Ligue 1 home games have produced over 2.5 goals, and 11 of their 17 home matches last season also went over three goals.

No team has scored more goals in Ligue 1 this season than Rennes, who have netted 12 times in six games. Paris, meanwhile, have scored three goals or more in two of their six league matches.

Rennes have been finding it hard to keep out their opponents lately, failing to keep a clean sheet in 12 of their last 15 Ligue 1 games. They are on a run of four away days without recording a shutout.

Paris have enjoyed success in seven of their last nine home games in Ligue 1 and may be able to edge out Rennes, with a 2-1 win the correct-score pick.
