Rennes vs. Marseille: Goals Expected
Look, both these clubs are sitting pretty in the top half of Ligue 1, with Marseille boasting a solid 17 wins and Rennes just one shy with 17 themselves. Thing is, Rennes are on a tear, winning their last four league games, including a 4-1 rout of Lyon on March 17th. Marseille, meanwhile, have stumbled recently, drawing their last three matches, the latest a frustrating 2-2 at home against Strasbourg on April 20th. The key matchup here is the battle in Marseille’s midfield against Rennes’s dynamic attacking trio of Gouiri, Kalimuendo, and Terrier. I'm calling for goals, lots of them. My prediction: Rennes 3, Marseille 2.
