Lorient
Rennes and Lorient take on each other at Roazhon Park in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Wednesday’s program. Rennes aim to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Lille, and we are positive that they will go for a win in the midweek clash. Les Rouges et Noirs are after their sixth home win of the season, but les Merlus should not be written off just yet. Both Niang and Rutter remain quarantined, while Guirassy and Tait are out of contention with injuries.
As for Lorient, they did remarkably well to beat star-studded PSG in their last league fixture, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence. Les Merlus are eager to escape the relegation zone, and given their attacking performance in the triumph over PSG, over 2.5 goals betting option should be considered. Saunier, Fontaine, Diarra, and Boisgard are all out of contention with injuries, while both Le Goff and Nardi have been tested positive for coronavirus.

The same season les Merlus made it to the Coupe de la Ligue final, but Bordeaux proved to be a big catch (0-3) for them in the title game.
