Rennes Team News
Rennes is holding up well this season. They are currently in fourth place, have 31 points, and compete for the Europa League and even the Champions League. They are only six points behind the second-placed Lens, while the first-placed PSG is elusive to them, just like the rest of the league.
Rennes experienced a shock on the road in the last round against Reims. The home side won 3:1, but that shouldn’t surprise anyone since the team from the middle of the table has not lost a single defeat in the last five games. Before that, Rennes beat Brest 3:1. During the break, they also played friendly matches. They beat Feyenoord 2:1, and Celtic 4:3.
Now they are entering the competition phase when they have to think about every point because as many as three clubs are breathing down their necks with only two to three points behind Monaco, LOSC, and Lorient.
Nice Team News
Nice is unbeaten in their last five games. Three draws and two wins have strengthened them in the middle of the table in 9th place. At first glance, it doesn’t look bad, but they only collected 21 points. Only seven points behind them are the teams fighting for survival in the first league, and Nice cannot afford too many setbacks.
In the last round, Nice played a goalless game with Lens. Not a very satisfactory start to the continuation of the competition after the World Cup. They also played a few friendly matches during the break. They drew 1:1 with Tottenham, lost at home to Atalanta 3:0, and beat Standard 4:1. In the domestic competition, some of the main competitors from the middle of the table await them, as well as a cup match against Le Puy.

Rennes vs Nice Prediction
Rennes is a better team than Nice, but occasional drops in the game do not make them favorites to the extent they would like. The safest bet is that both teams will score a goal in the match. This almost always happens in their mutual encounters. Also, this year both teams are performing well in terms of goalscoring.
