Nantes vs Rennes Prediction and Betting Tips | 26th February 2023

Nantes host Rennes at the Stade de la Beaujoire in Ligue 1 on Sunday, looking to end their three-game winless run in all competitions and revive their campaign.

After beating Lorient 1-0 in the league earlier this month, the Canaries drew 1-1 with Juventus in the Europa League, lost 3-1 to Lens in the top flight before going 3-0 at home to the Bianconeri in the second leg, which ended their European campaign.

On the league front, Antoine Kombouaré's side have accumulated only 28 points from 24 games and sit in 13th position, eight places below their next opponents.

Bruno Génésio's side followed that up with a 2-1 win over Shakhtar Donetsk in the Europa League on Thursday, but eventually lost 5-4 on penalties as the tie ended 3-3 on aggregate.

Rennes are looking to complete the league double over Nantes but their latest form doesn't hold them in good stead.
