Betting suggestion:
The most likely scenario for this challenge will be for both teams to score at least one goal. It is to expect a Marseille wanting to turn around the bad moment it is going through, and on the other side Rennes will be motivated with only one defeat in the last eight games played. It should be noted that the "Both teams to score - Yes" market has won in three of Marseille's last four games and in two of Rennes' last three games.

The man responsible for putting his giving a touch of class to the team's attacks is Frenchman Michael Cuisance. Note that coach André Villas-Boas should have two absences for this match, as they are in the medical department: Boubacar Kamara and Jordan Amavi.

Rennes comes to this clash unmotivated after a 0-1 home defeat to Lille. The away team will be able to play in a 4-3-3, and should adopt a slightly more offensive posture, taking into account that, at this stage, it is going through a better moment in relation to the "enemy". In this tactical formation, the three men who will have the mission to occupy a more advanced zone on the pitch are Martin Terrier, Adrien Truffert and Jérémy Doku. Coach Julien Stéphan should not be able to count on left-winger Flavien Tait for being in the medical department.
