Stade Rennais vs Lens Prediction and Betting Tips | September 28th 2025

Stade Rennais and Lens bring round six of the French Ligue 1 to an end when they lock horns at Roazhon Park on Sunday. Habib Beye’s men will be out to get one over the visitors, having failed to win their last 10 meetings between the two teams since February 2015.

Stade Rennais were left spitting feathers last Saturday as they played out a 2-2 draw with Nantes after giving up their two-goal lead in the final 30 minutes at the Stade de la Beaujoire.

With that result, Beye’s side have gone unbeaten in four of their opening five league games, claiming two wins and two draws while scoring seven goals and keeping one clean sheet.

Rennes have picked up eight points from a possible 15 to sit eighth in the Ligue 1 standings, one point and one place below this weekend’s visitors.

Elsewhere, Lens turned in an impressive team display last Sunday when they cruised to a 3-0 victory over LOSC Lille at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis.

Pierre Sage’s men have picked up three wins from their four games since the 1-0 opening-day loss against Olympique Lyon, scoring eight goals and conceding four across the four matches.

While Rennes will look to maintain their newfound form on Sunday, they journey to Roazhon Park, where Rennes have won each of their last four league matches since the first week of April.
