THE PREDICTION
Two of Ligue 1’s in-form sides meet here with Rennes currently enjoying a five-game unbeaten run and league-leaders Lyon having not lost a game since mid-September. Rennes have been particularly solid in defence over the last month having conceded just once in their last five games but that resolve will be put to the test here against a side who have scored ten goals on their last three games alone. Lyon are not exactly watertight at the back having kept just one clean sheet in their last four so it reasonable to expect Rennes to score here, but you would fancy the visitors to outscore them so a Lyon win in a match featuring over 2.5 goals looks on the cards.
