Nantes take on the visitors Rennes at “La Beaujoire-Louis Fonteneau” in the gameweek 34 of the French Ligue 1. The match will be played in Nantes on Friday, April 20th.
At the start of the season Nantes had astonished everybody with their powerful and massive football, however, afterwards the side slowed down and lost its best shape. As a result, “Les Canaris” are sitting now only on the ninth position in the elite division table, having managed to pick up 45 points in 33 clashes played. The club’s offense demonstrates unconvincing performance in attack, having scored 32 goals while its defense looks a bit stronger, but also has certain problems resulted in 36 goals conceded. Nantes have earned 1:1 draw against Dijon, 0:3 defeat from St Etienne and 1:0 triumph over Troyes in the previous battles conducted in front of their fans.

Meanwhile, Rennes show rather solid play in this season, fighting for a place in the UEFA Europa League for the next season and demonstrating spectacular football. At the moment “Les Rouges et Noirs” settle on the fifth position in the Ligue 1 standings with 47 points taken after 33 rounds behind. The team can boast with superb effectiveness in attack, having scored 42 goals already, but its defense doesn’t feel so tough with 40 goals conceded. In the latest away tackles Rennes deserved 1:1 draw against Nice alongside with two victories over Bordeaux and Amiens with the same 2:0 scoreline.
Rennes have not failed across eight head-to-heads played against Nantes. At this point “Les Rouges et Noirs” are on the pace which cannot be said about inconsistent “Les Canaris”. I believe that not many goals will be combined in the forthcoming clash.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.0 scored goals.
