Prediction: 1-1
Rennes
Lille and Rennes meet at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy in what promises to be a closely contested Ligue 1 encounter. Both teams are in decent form but will likely adopt a cautious approach, aiming to avoid costly mistakes in this tightly matched fixture.For the hosts, the absence of Nga’ayel Mukau due to suspension is a notable blow, but they have no fresh injury concerns and boast a strong squad capable of covering the gap.
Lille's solid defensive record at home this season could play a key role in stifling Rennes' attacking threat. Rennes, meanwhile, will be without Adrien Truffert, who is serving a suspension. Despite this, they have the quality to pose problems for Lille, though their recent form on the road has been patchy. A disciplined defensive setup is expected, as they aim to frustrate the home side and hit on the counter.
