Lens are heading into this game in great form, having won their last two matches on the road without conceding a single goal. Before that they had a couple of draws and a narrow loss, so they are clearly in good shape. Rennes, on the other hand, are really struggling right now, having lost their last four games in a row and conceding plenty of goals along the way.

Looking at recent meetings between these two sides, most have been tight and low‑scoring, with many ending in draws. With Lens playing with confidence at home and Rennes on a bad run, this looks like a match where Lens have the edge and are likely to come out on top.
