Match Preview
Rennes hosts Auxerre at Roazhon Park on Sunday, and both teams come into this fixture with contrasting recent form. Rennes has struggled, winning just two of their last five matches, while Auxerre managed to secure a victory in their most recent outing, albeit with mixed results overall. Historically, this matchup has been relatively balanced, with Rennes winning four of the last ten encounters, but Auxerre has also shown resilience with three victories of their own.
One key angle to consider is Rennes' home advantage. Despite their recent dip in form, they have typically performed well at home, which could play a crucial role in this match. Additionally, Rennes has a strong attacking lineup that could exploit Auxerre's defensive vulnerabilities. With both teams having shown the ability to score, the potential for a high-scoring game exists, particularly given that three of their last ten encounters have seen over 2.5 goals. This match could be pivotal for Rennes as they look to regain their footing in Ligue 1, while Auxerre aims to build on their recent success.
