Lorient, Recent FormIt was just a point apiece for Lorient and Lyon in their last match, which ended in a 3-3 draw. During that encounter they had 50% possession and had 7 attempts on goal with 6 on target, while their opponents hit 6 of their 9 shots on goal.
Whilst manager Régis Le Bris will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 17 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they've conceded a goal in each of their the last 8 games at Stade Yves Allainmat.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
When it comes to home matches at Stade Yves Allainmat, Romain Faivre will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 5 league goals for Lorient in their last 6 home games.
Rennes, Recent FormThe 3-1 home defeat to Paris Saint-Germain will not have sat easily with the Rennes squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. Their share of possession in that meeting was 42%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Paris Saint-Germain had 17 shots on goal with 7 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 8, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 8 goals and some valuable points in the process.
