Lens double chance

Lens are slight favourites to win this match. Their current form, 11-match undefeated run in Ligue 1 and home advantage say it all.

Meanwhile, Rennes have struggled to start the season but bounced back last weekend.

Thus, we will back a less risky bet.

On the other hand, Rennes finally grabbed 3 points in their new campaign after beating the league newcomers Ajaccio (2:1) last weekend.

The Red and Blacks had a slow season start (W1, D1, L1). They need to find their best form if they want to repeat last season’s result when they were fourth.

However, they will face an arduous task this Saturday, as they have no wins in four Ligue 1 away matches (D2, L2).
