Stade Rennes vs Paris Saint Germain Predictions: Rennes have no respect for the french giants

PSG take a trip to the Roazhon Park to face Stade Rennes after their humiliating defeat against Newcastle FC in the Champions League. Once again, they have failed to live up to expectations despite the quality in the team and it's almost like they are set up for another horrible season. Prior to the defeat, they played a goalless draw with Clermont Foot in the ligue 1 and now they must find a solid response against Rennes. Rennes also lost their Europa league game against Villareal by a single goal but they won their league game against Nantes 3-1 prior to that defeat.

Stade Rennes are not so much of a bright team but they have done well in this campaign. They remain unbeaten after 7 games, as they had 2 wins and 5 draws in those games. Rennes were unlucky to lose their last game against Villareal but there is hope for the team in the remaining matches of the competition. Rennes will be hoping to build on their 3-1 win over Nantes in the league.Benjamin Bourigeaud, Desire Doue and Arnaud Kalimuendo were all on target in that game to see them ease past Nantes.

Rennes have been excellent in their last 2 meetings against PSG, beating the french giants twice in that season. Their most recent meeting ended in a 2-0 win courtesy of goals from Karl Toko Ekambi and Arnaud Kalimuendo in both halves.

Stade Rennes have 11 points so far from 7 games and they are ranked 6th on the table

• More than 4.5 cards in 4/5 games.
• Less than 10.5 corners in 4/5 games.

PSG have been nothing short of a disappointment so early in the season. They have continued to drop important points in the league and then they produced a shocker against Newcastle United in their last Champions League game that led to a 4-1 defeat. The team have a lot of work to do if they must get back to winning against Rennes who have proven difficult to beat last season.

PSG played a goalless draw against Clermont in their last league game prior to the Champions League defeat and this was quite disappointing as they defeated Marseille 4-0 in the game before that. Overall, in their opening 7 games, they have 3 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat and they remain 5th with 12 points

PSG are well aware of the threat from Rennes from their both defeats last season. Rennes won both meetings last season; 1-0 and 2-0.

• More than 2.5 goals in 5/7 games.

PSG remain the leader in the head-to-head battle as they have won 13 games, while Renne won 6 games and they played 1 draw in their 20 meetings against each other

• Less than 2.5 goals in 5/5 games.
• Less than 10.5 corners in 5/6 games

PSG are not far from the team they were last season despite significant additions to the team in the transfer window. There is a huge doubt in the team and it is risky for them going into this match against Rennes. Rennes are feeling motivated to prove they can beat the best team in the league and sometimes that’s all that is needed. PSG will slowly get back to their best but this is a game of narrow margins. We will see what tricks PSG have up their sleeves but they won’t be banging in many goals here for sure.
