Rennes vs Dijon
French Ligue 1
Date: Saturday, 11th March, 2017
Kick off at 19:00 UK Time
Venue: Roazhon Park, Rennes.
Match Preview
Rennes and Dijon will be facing each other in the 29th round of the French Ligue 1 and their game will be played on Saturday afternoon. Dijon is on the verge of relegation and one or two additional defeats would most definitely make their relegation inevitable outcome of the season.
However, based on the results that they had in the last couple of weeks, it will take a miracle for them to stay in the league. With only one win and four defeats in the last five league games they have enabled other teams around them to close the gap which resulted in Dijon falling to the 18th place in the league. Like that was not enough for them, Jordan Marie, Vincent Rufli, and Marvin Martin will miss this game because of the injuries.
On the other hand, Rennes also did not have amazing run when it comes to the results because they also managed to win in only one game. However, they were defeated in only one game while the remaining three games finished draw, including the game in the previous round. Rennes also will have problems with injured players as Pedro Mendes, Mexer, Clement Chantome and Morgan Amalfitano and they will all miss the game on Saturday.

Rennes vs Dijon: Prediction
Dijon will fight, but Rennes are a much better prepared team and this would go down as a shock to see an away victory here. Rennes are in a much calmer state of affairs and if they score early this could be a comfortable victory. Despite this our main bet will be to see over 2.5 goals.
