Marseille shared the spoils with both Montpellier (1-1) and Dijon (0-0) in two narrow occasions over the past seven days but still extended their six-match unbeaten streak, which should have them in a good mood as they host Rennes for their Matchday 8 clash on Sunday evening.
Les Phoceens have struggled for great consistency in front of the home fans, where they bagged four points in three outings with just two goals scored. They’ve seen injury woes and will still be without Florian Thauvin, which could be what’s behind their deprived attacking prowess.
Rennes have seen a perfect start of the new campaign despite a busy summer behind them and we’ve seen them bag nine points in three outings. However, they’ve struggled to build on the success and this will be more worrying for Julien Stephan, with three draws and two losses seen in their last five!
Red and Blacks only saw a streak of three draws ended with a 1-0 loss in Nantes earlier this week, which will have them motivated to bounce. However, they’ll be in for a great task and building on performances against Brest (0-0), Celtic (1-1), and Lille (1-1) will be a crucial task.
We feel Marseille now have what it takes to outclass them and bag all three points in front of the home fans, as we go for a Home win at Evens with Unibet. We’ve seen them a tough nut to crack and we do see them turning a narrow clash their way.
Still, we feel the visitors will put on a solid challenge and we do see them finding the net as well, forcing Les Phoceens into an exciting contest for the points. With hope we’ll see the home side outgun them in the process, we’ll now also go for Over 2.5 Goals FT at 11/10 Ladbrokes.
