Nantes take on the visitors Rennes in the round 36 match of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Wednesday, May 11th at Stade de la Beaujoire (Nantes).
I'm sure the season for Combouare's wards is already over. The other day, the hosts won the French Cup for the first time in 22 years and thus got into European competition. The “canaries” have absolutely no tournament tasks in the remaining rounds. To be honest, Nantes practically did not have the opportunity to get close to the top 5, having spent the last matches chaotically and beat only outright outsiders of the Ligue 1. We can note the excellent performances at home, where since the end of December the hosts have practically not lost points, but the bookmakers do not repel such excellent statistics and offer extremely high odds for the victory of the canaries above five. Here and fatigue and absence of interest from the outcome of the duel with Rennes.

But the visitors have a very difficult finish. Rennes, having made some noise this season in the Conference League, of course wants to get into the Champions League. Alas, the game on two fronts could not but affect. In April, the “red-blacks” lost to Strasbourg and Monaco, the closest competitors for a place in top-3, and now they need to catch up with Monaco and Marseille. Head-to-head confrontation with the Provencal’s will give answers to all questions, the benefit is that Rennes have to play at home. In the last rounds, the team did not notice Saint Etienne and defeated Lorient and is approaching the duel with Nantes in a good mood.
The league's second attack against a less motivated opponent. You should not underestimate Nantes, but Rennes motivation should prevail. Perhaps the visiotrs won’t win with a difference of more than a goal and the whole match will be difficult, but of Bruno Genesio's men are the favorites. There is nowhere else to retreat, even if Rennes has some problems with the composition and away results.
Prediction for the match: Rennes to win.
