One of the leagues that have gained a lot of popularity in recent years and, above all, after PSG has assembled its powerful team, France’s Ligue 1, continues with its 2021-22 season, and we reach a day 20 where, despite PSG being comfortably installed at the top of the leaderboard, the other teams in the league know that by winning many games they can reach the top 5 of the table, which is the main objective.
From second to ninth in the standings there is only a difference of 9 points; that is, 3 games, so the teams know how important it is to win games in each match.

Why Bet on Lens
After starting the season in the best possible way, Lens fell into such a deep pothole that it took too long to get out. Lens is currently located in ninth place in the standings, with a record of 7 wins, 6 draws, and 6 defeats, 9 points behind Marseille in second place in the table.
Lens was one of the teams that started the season giving PSG a lot of fight but, after several problems, they began to lose games and drop places in the table.
Why Bet on Rennes
On the other hand, Rennes has been one of the teams that have come from less to more this season, but in recent days they have had problems defining the games and this has cost them losing second place in the table of positions. Rennes is located in fourth place in the table, with a record of 9 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses, with 31 points, 5 behind second place.
Rennes is coming off two consecutive defeats, the last of them against Monaco with a result of 1-2.
Final Betting Analysis: Lens vs. Rennes
These two teams are coming off a streak of bad results, so neither of them can be confident in their current form. However, Rennes has, in our opinion a better squad and more potential for fighting for important things. Then they are our pick for this match.
