Rennes vs Auxerre Predictions

• Rennes are unbeaten in their last three games (W2, D1).
• Auxerre have lost their last two and have three defeats in six Ligue 1 games so far.
• Rennes are yet to keep a clean sheet, while Auxerre have scored in all but one of their fixtures.

Momentum with Rennes

Rennes can extend their unbeaten run to four matches on Sunday when they welcome Auxerre to Roazhon Park.

The home side started their Europa League campaign with a 2-1 success away to Larnaca on Thursday, while Auxerre were beaten 2-0 by Marseille last time out.

After enjoying a three-match unbeaten run in August, Auxerre have now lost two on the spin, although they did come at the hands of Lyon and Marseille.

Auxerre have only kept one clean sheet all season, and the history books suggest Rennes are the team to back in this tie as they try to extend their unbeaten run to four against Auxerre for the first time in their history.

Auxerre to go down fighting

While Auxerre should come unstuck on Sunday, they have what it takes to find the back of the net.

They last failed to score on their travels in January, while Rennes have found the back of the net in their previous six matches in all competitions, winning two of those ties via a 2-1 scoreline.

At home, Rennes have won two on the spin this season, but they failed to keep Ajaccio and Brest at bay, who both found the net before losing.
