ANGERS
Angers’ performances this season have been more than impressive, especially when taking into consideration the fact that the team has been promoted to the first division only this season. Angers currently holds the second position of the table together with Lyon and St.Etienne with 6 wins, 4 draws and 2 defeats in 12 games this season. It has the 2nd best, together with Lyon and after Paris SG, defensive record in the league, with only 7 conceded goals, just a bit more than half a goal per game on average.
Apart from its great defensive record, Angers is a team with 9 under 2.5/8 no-goal outcomes in 12 games It should also be mentioned that Angers has had 2 wins and 4 draws in 6 home games this season, 5 of which have ended as no-goal games.
RENNES
Rennes has had 4 wins, 5 draws and 3 defeats in 12 games this season and is coming from a 0-1 home defeat from Paris SG in its last game. Rennes is coming from a very dry run lately, evident from the fact that it has had 5 draws and 2 defeats in its last 7 games in the league. It should be mentioned however that Rennes has suffered just 1 defeat away from home (in its first game in the new season) while it has had 2 wins and 3 draws in the rest.
Prediction
Based on the above considerations, this is a very probable under 2.5 goals situation and possibly a no-goal situation.
