Dijon :
The Dijon starts for this unmotivated day after having added another defeat in the French championship, losing on Strasbourg’s ground by 3-2. We remember that the landlords no longer win by four consecutive games. Despite this black phase, the local team remains at the center of the qualifying table.
In this home game, coach Olivier Dall’Oglio must keep the team in 4-3-3, benefiting the defensive organization and the counterattacks, exploring in the best way the back of the opponent’s defensive line. Wesley Said is one of the great highlights of the formation of the house with 5 goals signed. For this game the coach can not count on Djilobodji, punished, in addition to Amalfitano and Varrault, these by injury.
After 9 wins, 4 draws and 9 losses, the away team is in the 7 th position, having won 31 points. In the last game, they beat Angers at home by (1-0), after in the previous game they won out, in a match against Lille, by (1-2). This is a team little affected by the house factor, since it has obtained similar results at home and abroad. In the last 10 games out of the championship Rennes has 4 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses, so he won 14 points out of 30 possible.

Rennes:
The Rennes class managed to add another victory in this French championship, by triumphing inside the gates over Angers 1-0. At this time the visitors are still at the top of the leaderboard.
It is important to note that the away team has the fifth best record to play away from home, as they won 15 points in 11 games. Usually the commander Sabri Lamouchi plays in 4-2-3-1 benefiting the possession of the ball and attacks through the corridors, especially through the runners: Ismaila Sarr is the one responsible for marking the rhythms of the game. However, the Moroccan Khazri is the great highlight of Rennes with 6 goals scored in the championship. For this game the visiting commander can not count on the injured Jordan Tell.
The market that interests us for this game is the ” plus 2.5 goals ” in the final score. I think this match will be very open and with great scoring opportunities because the two formations have more competition in the attack compared to the more defensive sector.
