In another match of the second round of the Europa League group stage, French Rennes will play at home with Turkish Fenerbahce. Your attention is invited to the forecast for this match.
"Rennes"
Rennes, after a nondescript start to the season, is starting to gain good momentum. In the first round of the Europa League, Bruno Genesio's team managed to put the squeeze on AEK Cyprus (2:1) on the road, scoring the winning goal in the fourth compensated minute of the second half. Last Sunday, the red-blacks defeated Auxerre (5-0) on their own field, rising to 6th place in the standings of the French championship.
Fenerbahce
Fener has also already managed to forget the failure in the Champions League qualification, having begun to achieve success on all fronts. If we take into account the last 7 matches, the Istanbul team won six of them, losing only at the end of August on the road to Konyaspor (0:1). In the first round of the Europa League group stage, Jorge Jesus' team took revenge on Dynamo Kyiv (2:1) at home for relegation from the Champions League.
Statistics and figures
- Rennes has a 4-match unbeaten streak (3 wins + 1 draw);
- In six of the last seven matches of Rennes, the bet "Both teams will score" took place;
- Rennes have won 6 of their last seven home matches, losing only once;
- Fenerbahce has won 6 matches out of the last seven, losing only once;
- In four of the last seven matches of Fenerbahce, the bet "At least one will not score" took place;
- Fenerbahce has lost only 1 match out of the last 11 away matches, losing only once.
Forecast
Fenerbahce will be difficult in this match, given how good Rennes is on the road, so the Turks may well choose defensive tactics that they are quite able to use if necessary. The French themselves are also unlikely to go out of their way to break the Istanbul resistance, keeping in mind the upcoming most difficult away match in the championship with Marseille. A draw here may well suit both sides.
