Rennes to Win
Rennes' form since the restart of the season has been erratic, to say the least. They lost every away game while winning all of their home matches. They are the second-best home team in the league this season with eight wins and only one loss. Recently, they even beat PSG at their home stadium which has been a fortress for them the entire season. But, their away form gives them headaches as their goal of reaching the Champions League place is getting further away. The positive thing for Rennes is that they are being visited by Strasbourg who hasn't been all that relevant this season. They lost four games away from home, winning only two, and drawing on three occasions. They have conceded 16 goals in nine matches as a guest team. Their h2h record is on Rennes' side, they won six times in their last ten outings, Strasbourg took three victories while one match ended in a draw.
Over 2.5 Goals
Strasbourg's goal difference as an away team is frighteningly bad at 13-16, and now they are visiting one of the most efficient teams in Ligue 1. Rennes has scored 24 goals in ten matches at home while allowing only seven. Looking at their overall stat for over/under matches, this prediction makes even more sense as Rennes has 14 over 2.5 goals matches while Strasbourg has one less. Five of the ten matches they played against each other ended with more than two goals scored.

Potential Lineups, Team News, and Preview
Rennes
The ambition for Rennes this season is clear, they want to play in the Champions League next season, and all of their efforts are directed at fulfilling that goal. However, they need to expand on their results when playing away from home which has taken some important points out of their grasp. They are currently six points away from the third spot, or eight from the second place which is occupied by Lens. Rennes has endured a heavy hit on their chances to accomplish their goal however as their best scorer Martin Terrier suffered an ACL injury which has cut his great individual season short. Arnaud Kalimuendo, Lorenz Assignon, and Xeka are also out with injuries.
Potential lineup: Mandanda, Traore, Wooh, Rodon, Theate, Truffert, Bourigeaud, Majer, Ugochukwu, Doue, Gouiri.
Strasbourg
After suffering yet another loss in the latest round of the Ligue 1 season, this time at home to Toulouse, Strasbourg is in the relegation zone reeling from the lack of wins and effort to get some positive action. They have only two wins in 20 matches this season which is not enough to keep them in Ligue 1. They still have a chance, but they need to fix their issues before it's too late. They will be without some players for the Rennes trip: Gerzino Nyamsi, Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, Eiji Kawashima, Thomas Delaine, and Nordine Kandil are out with injuries while Kevin Gameiro will miss the match through suspension.
Potential lineup: Sels, Sobol, Djiku, Le Marchand, Doukoure, Guilbert, Sanson, Prcic, Aholou, Mothiba, Diallo.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.

Strasbourg
Player to Watch: Habib Diallo
The 27-year-old Senegalese center-forward is Strasbourg's top scorer this season with eight goals, and now that Kevin Gameiro will miss the game against Rennes because of suspension, Diallo will have an even bigger responsibility to carry his team's fortunes.
