Ligue 1 serves up an intriguing Halloween clash as table-topping Nice host a formidable Rennes side. Nice arrive in sensational form, boasting a perfect record of five wins from five, scoring ten and conceding just four. Their 100% win rate is a testament to their early season dominance, despite the surprisingly low 10% win probability against their visitors.
Rennes, meanwhile, sit comfortably in the league, with a 50% win rate over their last five outings, securing four victories from five. They've found the net 56 times this season, but their 46 goals conceded hint at a more porous defence compared to Nice's stingy backline. Head-to-head encounters have been largely dominated by Rennes recently, including a resounding 4-0 victory over Nice earlier, though Nice did snatch a 2-1 win in their penultimate meeting. With the bookmakers predicting a draw or away win, Nice will be keen to defy the odds and extend their perfect run against a team that has historically troubled them. This promises to be a fascinating tactical battle, with Nice's impenetrable defence tested by Rennes' attacking prowess.
