Nice hosts Rennes in round 21 of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Friday, January 24th at Allianz Riviera (Nice)
In general, the Eaglets have been looking quite good on their pitch lately. They gained confident victories in the cup and scored enough, but these successes are local – Nice played with representatives from the bottom of the standings. The hosts have problems with the squad, and the team began to concede a lot compared to last season. As a result, the Eaglets take only the eleventh line and the 14th one in the quality of the defensive ranks. Yes, there are only four points to the Europa League zone. But is there any advantage besides the home field factor?

Rennes didn’t please its fans at the beginning of the season, but it gradually begins to justify the advances. The Red and Blacks are even shadow favorites in the fight for second place. The visitors have just great youth who can already decide the outcome of the matches and whom Real Madrid is interested in. And let Rennes lose the game with Marseille, this defeat was the first in seven rounds. The Bretons have the third defense in the league and three away victories in a row without conceding a single goal. They continue to progress and are simply in excellent shape.
Both the hosts and visitors show good results, but bookmakers offer approximately the same coefficients for the victory of the teams. And this despite the fact that the Eaglets lost only twice at home, and are traditionally strong at the Allianz Riviera. Nice conceded in the last two games, and it will be difficult for it to breach the defense of an opponent who is perfect when playing defense first. Now the visitors really look like a more balanced team. They are fighting for the Champions League and should score at least one point.
Prediction for the match: Rennes to win with +0.5 handicap
