Prediction: 1-1
Rennes
Lens and Rennes take on each other at Stade Bollaert-Delelis in the Ligue 1 round 24. Lens came from two goals behind to share the spoils with Olympique Marseille in midweek, with the team once again proving their worth in the 2020/21 Ligue 1 season. The Yellow and Reds failed to win the previous three home games, and, no doubt, they would be happy with one point from Saturday’s clash. Both Ganago and Traore are sidelined with injuries.
Rennes, on the other hand, dropped two points in a 1-1 draw with Lorient. Les Rouges et Noirs aim to retain their spot in top five, but beating Lens on the road is easier said than done. A close encounter is on the cards, and we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Niang remains quarantined, while Tait misses the game with injury.
