Prediction: 1-1
Rennes
Olympique Marseille will be aiming to bounce back from an embarrassing 2-1 loss to Canet Roussillon in the Coupe de France when they take on Rennes in the Ligue 1 round 22. OM aim to give their angry fans something to cheer about, and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field in the postponed fixture. Midfielder Gueye is banned for the match, while both Amavi and Rongier are sidelined with injuries.
Rennes, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Olympique Lyon. Since both Marseille and Rennes are likely to go for a win in Wednesday’s clash, we are tempted to put our money on both teams to score. Both Traore and Martin are banned for the game, while Salin is out of contention with injury. In the first half of the season Rennes defeated Marseille 2-1.
Highlighted Player (Kevin Strootman):
After starting his senior career at Sparta Rotterdam, Kevin Strootman joined fellow Dutch side Utrecht in 2011. The defensive midfielder, who was born on February 13, 1990 in Ridderkerk, Netherlands, then moved to PSV where he established himself as a first-team regular. Strootman was then spotted by AS Roma scouts and in 2013 he decided to take a step forward in his career by joining the Giallorossi.
On March 9, 2014, the Dutch footballer sustained a serious knee injury that made him miss the remainder of the 2013/2014 Serie A season. He missed the 2014 FIFA World Cup as well, but he returned to contention on November 9, 2014. Kevin Strootman played for Roma until August 28 when he signed a five-year contract with Olympique Marseille.
Speaking of his international career, Strootman made his Netherlands debut against Austria in 2011 and he scored his first ever goal for the Dutch national team in Euro 2012 qualifier against Finland. Kevin Strootman’s preferred foot is right.
