Rennes take on the visitors Lyon at “Roazhon Park” in the matchday 31 of the Ligue 1. The game will be played on Sunday, April 2nd.
Rennes recorded only two defeats out of 10 recent matches alongside with one victory and seven draws. The hosting side comes up to the Sunday match with four-match unbeaten run resulted in six points taken. After 30 gameweeks Rennes occupy the 8th place in the Ligue 1 with 39 points gained and 28-33 goal difference. The team does neither claim for the Eurocups nor for the relegation zone. Christian Gourcuff’s team has played 15 games at their own turf in the Ligue 1 this season resulted in 29 points, having not been losing at home since the 14th of January.

Lyon were defeated in two recent matches in the UEFA Europa League by Roma with the same 1:2 scoreline but still knocked out the Italians and beat PSG in the French Ligue 1. Lyon occupy the fourth place with 50 points taken and 60-34 goal difference after 29 matchdays in the Ligue 1. Bruno Genesio's team is unlikely to get higher in the standings as it is 14 points away from the third place while falling down in the standings is quite real. On the road Lyon recorded 17 points gained in 14 games with 22 goals for and 19 goals against. In 2017 Lyon have not won on the road in the Ligue 1 recording four defeats and one draw in five matches.
Historically, Lyon have a slight advantage against Rennes. Although, taking into consideration the latest results of the teams at their own turfs and on the road, I don't believe that the visiting side will be able to defeat the hosting side in this match. But I prefer to play it safe and take the Rennes with positive Asian handicap as odds are enough high.
Prediction for the match: Rennes to win with +1.0 Asian handicap.
