Rennes vs Ajaccio Predictions

• Rennes are yet to win in Ligue 1 but only failed to win three games to start a campaign in one of the last 15 years.
• Ajaccio failed to win 36 of their last 38 top-flight away games.
• Each of Rennes’ last six home H2H wins eclipsed a -1 handicap.

Something’s got to give for Rennes

For a side with European aspirations, failing to win either of the opening two rounds has been a massive blow for Rennes. However, a home encounter with newly promoted Ajaccio should be just what the doctor ordered as they seek their first league win at a strong odds-on price.

It seems like just a matter of time until something clicks for Rennes as no side registered more goal attempts than their 45 across the opening two rounds, although that has resulted in a joint league-low one goal.

Combine Rennes trigger happy methods with Ajaccio’s league low average possession of 33% and we could be in for a constant barrage of home pressure throughout the game. Considering that all of Rennes’ home H2H wins saw a 2+ goal margin, the floodgates may open when the first one lands.

Stick with Rennes

This season is expected to be an uphill battle all the way for Ajaccio, who have won just twice across their last 38 top-flight away games! As such, we’re backing Rennes to come out on top in the -1 handicap market, with a smaller stakes selection going the way of a dominant 3-0 home win.
