PREVIEW & PREDICTION – Rennes vs Paris SG 30/01/2018
Tuesday, starting at 20:05, the Rennes – PSG match at the Ligue Coupe semifinals will be played. We anticipate a fairly unbalanced match that matters only to guests.
The hosts failed to take any point in their move to Dijon, the team that was recently demolished by PSG with 8-0. After being eliminated by the same PSG in the Coupe de France, they are resting a few titles, I think they will offer somehow this Parizian game. In Ligue 1 they are currently in the 8th position and are going to visit the Guingamp in the next stage on 4 fever. In the last two games disputed by the leaders of France, the only ones since the arrival of the Neymar and Mbappe stars, Rennes scored every time but received at least 4 goals per game. The main problem with the aggressors was always the defense of the big teams. We think that this time, especially if some players will be hired, the Rennes players will get 3 goals from the Cavani-Neymar-Mbappe triple, especially as Neymar and Cavani seem to have solved problems.
On the other hand, PSG does not require any presentation. After the defeat with Lyon, the second in the championship after Strasbourg, the PSG did not lose anything, but increased the pressure that was so great on their shoulders. After massive summer investments, both Unai Emery and his students have to prove what they can and deserve so much money. Thus, we expect to see again a full force on the ground from the “millionaires”. Still, there are good news for the Paris club. The two names that dominate the attack of the team, Neymar and Cavani, seem to have solved their problems just a few weeks ago, and besides, the Uruguayan became the team’s all time scorer, surpassing Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
PREDICTION: Over 2.5 goals @ 1.45
