Lille vs Rennes Prediction & Betting Tips (24 November)

Lille has been 4th in the rankings for several weeks. The northern club retained its position at the foot of the podium despite its draws against Lyon 1-1 and Nice 2-2 just before the international break. He thought he would win for the Aiglons but saw them equalize after added time. At the same time, LOSC is 14th in the Champions League standings out of 36 teams and was the executioner of Madrid clubs Real 1-0 and Atlético 1-3 before taking a point against another giant of European football , Juventus 1-1. Bruno Genesio's team will try to do it again on Wednesday in Bologna. The final straight at Stade Rennais before the end of year break will be scrutinized by all observers of French football.

The Rouge et Noir, deprived of Europe this season and who intend to reconnect with the joys of competing in a continental competition, are not in their place in Ligue 1. The club's leaders thus ousted coach Julien Stéphan and entrusted the position to Jorge Sampaoli who will lead his first match on the Breton bench this Sunday. The SRFC is 13th in the championship with only one point ahead of the virtual play-off. He was crushed before the international break at Auxerre 4-0, a humiliation which was the last straw for Julien Stéphan, and was surprised at home by Toulouse 0-2 under the orders of interim coach Sébastien Tambouret. 

Not only have Rennes performed extremely well on their top-flight travels of late, securing many points from ten matches, but they have also proven entertaining to watch, with 10 of their last 13 trips producing goals at both ends. This has also been the case in six of the most recent nine Lille home games at this level, so more of the same is expected.
