We continue to track the French Ligue 1 together, where we are certain to expect incredible matches! On May 4th, the field of the "Stade Saint Symphorien" stadium will bring together "Metz" and "Rennes". Let's take a look at what the teams look like at the start of the season and what bet can be made to increase our bank. Let's dive in!

Possible Rosters

"Metz": Oukidja; Colin, Traore, Sane, Udol; Jacques, N'Doram, Atta; Van Den Kerkhof, Mikautadze, Diallo.
"Rennes": Mandanda; Doue, Omari, Wooh, Belocian; Blas, Santamaria, Matusiwa, Doue; Terrier, Kalimuendo.

"Metz"

In the last season, they became finalists of Ligue 2 and earned promotion to the country's top division. In the 27th round, they suffered a heavy defeat from "Monaco" (2:5). Afterwards, they had an effective game with "Brest", in which they lost with a score (3:4). In the next match, they managed to defeat "Lens" on their field (2:1). Then the team gained a minimal victory over "Le Havre" (1:0). In the most recent round, they lost to "Lille" with a score (1:2).

"Rennes"

Currently, the lads are 9th in the tournament table with 42 points earned. In the 27th round, they suffered a defeat from "Strasbourg" (0:2). Then the guys lost to "Monaco" with a minimal score. In the next match, they lost to "Toulouse" (1:2). After that, they finally managed to win, defeating "Nantes" with a score (3:0). And in the last game, the team lost to "Brest" (4:5).

Head-to-Head

The teams last met on 13th August 2023. In that game, "Rennes" secured a big win with a score (5:1).

Prediction

"Rennes" are much stronger than their opponent, but they have experienced many failures in recent rounds. For quite a while, "Rennes" have been beating "Metz" heavily in direct confrontations. The last time "Metz" managed to win was in 2018, so this game will be significant for them. Nonetheless, I will venture to bet on the visitors, as "Rennes" have started to show very productive games in their recent matches.

Total Bet Prediction

For the upcoming match, I would suggest betting on a total of over 2.5, as "Rennes" have been scoring a lot in recent rounds.
