Celtic vs Rennes Prediction & Betting tips
Stade Rennes is still waiting for her first European victory and has already been eliminated in the Europa League. However, the team must travel to Glasgow for the difficult away game against Celtic. Is a victory for Rennes an option at all?
Celtic:
The Scots have an exceptionally good start to the Europa League. With just one point ahead of CFR Cluj, it is already in the next round of the competition. Celtic is unbeaten in Europe. The first match against Stade Rennes on September 19 ended in a scoring after a 1-1 score. After that, Neil Lennon’s team remained clear. In-house, CFR beat Cluj and Lazio and also won the away match against Lazio. A great achievement, so The Bhoys still have everything in their own hands.
The last victory was very narrow. Thanks to a counter goal in the seventh minute, the 3-5-2 lineup of Lennon soon fell behind. Still, James Forrest equalized immediately. Only in the 90 + 5th minute, substitute Olivier Ntcham managed to make the winning. That goal was desperately needed, because otherwise Celtic would be second.
Neltic looks good for Celtic. It is a neck-and-neck race with Rangers and both teams win almost every game. Celtic is three points ahead, but on the other hand has played one more game. If Rangers of Aberdeen win next week, the two clubs are in the lead. Enormous tension in the Scottish competition.
Rennes:
Stade Rennes had probably presented her European tour differently. The French cup winner managed to qualify for this tournament win, but it all went worse than expected. Two games before the end of the group stage, it is only one point below. The first match was played against Celtic and then everything was lost. That is a huge contrast compared to the upcoming opponent.
In the past few weeks, it hit CFR Cluj twice and both games ended in 1-0 in favor of the opponent. It is noteworthy that in these two games Rennes accumulated seven yellow cards and two red cards.
With nine out of three, Rennes did get off the starting blocks in Ligue 1, but then the results soon declined. They remained seven rounds without a win, but meanwhile the team of Julien Stéphan did win over Toulouse and Amiens. That now puts Rennes in eleventh place.
