Our Predictions
Marseille’s attacking firepower and recent goalscoring form (4-2 last match) suggest they can edge it, and both teams are capable of scoring. Odds favor Marseille slightly, so an away win with both teams scoring and at least 3 goals sounds about right.
Rennes will be eager to bounce back at home, and recent head-to-heads have been tight. A high-scoring draw feels plausible, especially with both teams confident in attacking — hence the BTS and over 2.5 goals.
Though Marseille is favored, a cautious game with tight defenses could produce a low-scoring away win. Odds favor Marseille, but with the 'No' on BTS and under 2.5, it’s a cautious, outcome-driven bet leaning on disciplined defense.
Welcome to Extratips, where we’re about to dive into a juicy Ligue 1 clash between Rennes and Marseille on August 17th at 15:00. Rennes, the hosts, are looking to bounce back after a mixed bag of recent results, while Marseille arrive full of confidence, having pushed hard in their last few outings. The odds paint an interesting picture: bet365 offers 3.40 for a Rennes win, 3.50 for a draw, and just 2.05 for Marseille — pretty tight, but the away side’s slight favorite, as expected. Marseille’s current form shows they’re capable of scoring multiple goals, with their last five matching results including a 4-2 thriller against Rennes back in May. Rennes, meanwhile, has shown they can tighten up at home but lack consistency. Their recent head-to-heads suggest a game that could go either way, but Marseille’s attacking flair might tip the scales. Key factors? Marseille’s front line is in good nick, and Rennes’s defense can be shaky. Expect a high-energy game with chances at both ends, possibly leaning towards goals from both sides. Could we see a high-scoring draw, or will Marseille land a narrow win? Let’s find out.
