Toulouse vs Rennes Prediction 5 May 2019
Toulouse takes on the visitors Rennes in round 35 of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Sunday, May 5th at Stadium Municipal (Toulouse)
Toulouse showed a good start in the championship; at the beginning of the season, it even was close to the leaders, but then gradually lost its positions, rolled down lower and lower in the standings and nearly reached the relegation zone. But all the same, the team took the necessary points in the matches against obvious competitors in the struggle for a place in the sun (Guingamp, Caen, Angers). And Toulouse ranks 15th 4 rounds before the end of the championship; it has 7 points margin from the play-out zone, which still doesn’t guarantee the team a place in the league for the next season, but gives certain confidence. In the last 3 rounds, Toulouse scored only 1 point, but the team played with the 2nd Lille and the teams fighting for the European Cups (Montpellier and St. Etienne), so it can’t be judged…

Rennes, on the contrary, had a terrible start; the reason probably lies in the additional burdens associated with participation in the Europa League. However, the team leveled its position closer to the middle of the local championship; it didn’t claim prizes but didn’t roll down too much either. Now The Red and Blacks rank 11th in the standings, and nothing threatens them. Moreover, there are only 4 matches left, and they will go on vacation.
Rennes no longer needs anything, although it is necessary to take care of health and not to pick up injuries before going on leave, if possible. By the way, there are about six injured players in the team, but from the regular ones one can only mention Andre; the others have been in the treatment room for a long time. Lately, Rennes doesn’t work like a dog alternating draws and losses. Such statistics have already been observed for seven rounds – a loss, a draw, a loss, a draw. In the last round, there was a draw against Monaco, and if we continue the logical chain, the loss is coming. Why not? Toulouse would be rather pleased with these 3 points, and Rennes does not need them. The latter lost to the penultimate Dijon in the away match before last, so is Toulouse worse? Still, I need to insure the hosts with +0.5 handicap. Who knows, maybe there will be a failure in the mentioned schedule of Rennes, and it will play a second draw in a row.
Prediction for the match: Toulouse to win with + 0.5 handicap
