Auxerre vs Rennes: match statistics
Rennes appear to be the favorites in this match despite their recent poor form. Auxerre are in a distant 16th place in the table with just 27% home wins and as many as 45% of their home matches without scoring a goal. The hosts have lost 55% of their home games, making them one of the weakest teams in the league in front of their own fans. Rennes, despite a difficult period (4 losses in their last 5 matches), have better overall statistics: 51% possession away from home, a higher shot conversion rate (11% vs 8%), and a better goal tally for the season (34 goals scored). Another key factor is their table position - Rennes are in 6th place, which demonstrates consistency throughout the season. Considering Auxerre's weakness at home and the visitors' offensive potential, I expect a Rennes victory, although both teams' current form suggests a possible draw or a closely contested match.
