Rennes take on the visitors Dijon at "Roazhon Park" in the round three of the French Ligue 1. The game will be played on Saturday, August 19th.
Rennes took unsuccessful start in a new season and if 1:2 loss to Lyon in last matchday was quite predictable, then 1:1 draw against Troyes in the opening round of the season was a real failure. In 2017 Rennes were broken only four times in face of their fans and exceptionally by the grands: twice by Paris SG 0:1, 0:4, by Monaco 2:3 and by Lyon 1:2 in the mentioned above encounter. In other seven home clashes the team got three triumphs and four draws.

In their turn, Dijon completely collapsed in the opening matches of the season, having been thrashed twice: by Marseille 0:3 and Monaco 1:4. It is clear that the team was defeated by the leaders, still, seven conceded goals in two games played is too much. Thus, judging from the starting clashes, Dijon are a real contender for relegation to the Ligue 2. In regards to the side's performance on the road, last time it managed to pick up three points at away field was on the 28th of January. And afterwards Dijon have not won in 10 matches in a row, having gained three draws and seven losses in them.
Last season Rennes took only one point in their head-to-heads against Dijon after 1:1 draw at the home pitch and 0:3 away defeat. The time has come for the hosts to win in the upcoming fight and, taking into account Dijon's defense, it is quite real as the hosting side has higher class which they should prove in face of their fans.
Prediction for the match: Rennes to win.
