Stade Rennais vs AS Monaco - 15/04/2022
5729
On Friday night, Rennes and Monaco meet at Roazhon Park in a game that could be vital in deciding who qualifies for European football from Ligue One for next season.
Rennes have enjoyed a strong season and currently sit in third place in the French top flight, three points behind second-place Marseille who occupy the last automatic qualification spot for next season’s Champions League.
Bruno Genesio’s team have been in formidable form of late in Ligue One, as they are unbeaten in seven league games, having recorded six wins in the process.
A 3-2 win at Reims in their last game means that Rennes have also scored at least two goals in six of their last seven matches in Ligue One.
The home team also has a good recent home record in Ligue One, having won their last five league games at Roazhon Park, while scoring at least two goals in each of the victories.
Monaco has revived their bid for European football with a good recent run of league form. The team from the principality are now just a point outside the European spots. However, a win in this clash would put the visitors just three points behind the home team in the table.
A 2-1 home win over Troyes last time out in Ligue One means that Monaco has won four of their last five matches in the French top-flight.
The visitors have also scored at least two goals in each of their last three league matches.
Monaco’s away form has improved of late in Ligue One, as they have won two of their last three league matches on their travels in the French top-flight.
Forebet predicts that Rennes will continue their recent stellar form by recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
