Match Time & Date:

10:00 AM
Prediction: 2-2
Rennes
After sharing the spoils with Olympique Marseille at Stade Velodrome, Olympique Lyon will be looking to return to winning ways in the Ligue 1 when they take on Rennes on Wednesday evening. Les Gones aim to stay in the title race, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at Rennes. Midfielder Lucas Paqueta is banned for the match as he was sent off in the draw with OM. You should bear in mind that Lyon are eyeing their ninth home win of the season.
Les Rouges et Noirs, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing each of their previous three league fixtures. Rennes, though enjoy playing at Parc Olympique Lyonnais, which is the main reason why we predict the visitors are going to find the net in Wednesday’s clash. Defender Faitout Maouassa returns from suspension for the visitors.
