Rennes, Recent FormRennes will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 3-1 away win against Clermont Foot. Their share of possession in that meeting was 56%, while racking up 25 shots along the way, 11 of which were on target, in contrast to Clermont Foot, who had 14 shots on goal with 6 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 7, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they've conceded a goal in each of their the last 9 games at Roazhon Park.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form, having lost 3 of their last 6 games and picking up only 2 wins.
Nice, Recent FormNice will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-0 home win against Lens. In that game they had 40% possession and managed 14 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Lens who had 10 attempts and 3 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Francesco Farioli will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 6 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 5 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. In their last 6 away games, they have scored in 4 and kept a clean sheet in 4.
Terem Moffi will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Nice.
The last time these sides were pitched against each other in the league, it ended in a 2-0 win for Nice.
Les Aiglons will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 6 encounters with Rennes.
Rennes has lost the last 2 times they've faced Nice in the league.
Rennes man Benjamin Bourigeaud will be confident about extending his scoring record against Nice, having hit the netting 3 times in the last 5 times they have met in the league.
Rennes manager Julien Stéphan has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Lorenz Assignon (Leg), Benjamin Bourigeaud (Ankle) and Nemanja Matić (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Francesco Farioli has a number of injury concerns in his Nice squad to contend with: Aliou Baldé (Knee), Sofiane Diop (Broken toe) and Khéphren Thuram (Knee)
