Krasnodar vs Rennes Betting Tips

A clash of two already eliminated sides, Europa League qualification is on the line in Russia with both sides locked together on a solitary point in Group E.

Having drawn 1:1 in France earlier in the group, both sides know a win here will ensure a lucky loser place in the Europa League after Christmas.

Both sides have offered little in this group although both can feel a little bit sorry for themselves having lost to 90th-minute winners in their respective matches against Chelsea and Sevilla on match-day 4.

With qualification at stake and confidence low in both sides, I expect a tight encounter with these two teams struggling for form both in this competition and domestically.

Indeed, it has been desperately poor times for both outfits with Krasnodar losing 7 of their last 8 matches in all competitions and Rennes losing 6 of their last 8.

As such, it´s hard to make a case for either side here and the bookies are in agreement, pricing the hosts as narrow favourites at 2.5 odds while they are also sitting on the face on the goal lines with over and under 2.5 goals both priced at 1.9 odds.

All things considered, given both sides respective poor form, lack of confidence and the high stakes nature of the match suggests under 2.5 goals is more likely than not and that´s our best bet here.

Krasnodar vs Rennes Correct Score Prediction

Another low-scoring draw looks likely and I´m calling a repeat of their encounter in France with a final score of 1:1 in Russia.
