FK Krasnodar vs Rennes Free Betting Tips – Champions League
Will Stade Rennais continue its European adventure this season?
This will be the stake of the meeting which will take place this Wednesday at the Stadion FK Krasnodar between the Breton club and Krasnodar. Drawn in Pool E alongside Chelsea and Sevilla FC, the two future opponents had a similar journey during this group stage, losing their 3 matches against the two favourites of this group.
With 1 point in 4 games on the clock – the one acquired during the first leg between the two teams at Roazhon Park (1-1) – Rennes and Krasnodar point at 9 lengths of the Blues and the Sevillians and are logically eliminated from the race for qualification. However, they still have to decide who will finish in 3rd position and will be transferred to the knockout stages of the Europa League in January! It remains to be seen whether this would be preferable or prejudicial to Julien Stéphan’s men for the rest of their season, the Rennes being currently in a bad patch …
Key stats for the match FK Krasnodar vs Rennes
During the first leg, Rennes did not know how to get the best of the Russian club, despite fairly clear domination (1-1).
Rennes is discovering the high level of Europe, and this inexperience could be lacking in a moment as pivotal as this decisive meeting for qualifying for the Europa League.
The Rennais have been in the hard for several weeks: only 1 victory, 4 draws and 6 defeats in their last 11 games in all competitions.
Krasnodar is far from being a thunderbolt, but the Russian club will play at home, in the freezing cold of Russia in the middle of November and will have the home advantage.
Krasnodar will have the same objective as Rennes: a defeat or a draw from 2-2 would demote him to 4th position and put him on an unfavourable waiver for the C3.
To qualify for this group stage, Krasnodar eliminated PAOK Salonika and beat Porto last season in the preliminary round. The Russian club is not a novice either and to underestimate him would be a mistake.
FK Krasnodar vs Rennes Free Betting Tips
In great difficulty since the beginning of October, Rennes no longer advances in Ligue 1 and is already eliminated from the Champions League. Even if on paper, Krasnodar is an opponent within the reach of the Breton club, the Russian club will also play its luck to remain third and be transferred to the Europa League. To the chagrin of France’s UEFA index, a Russian victory seems more likely!
Betting Tips: FK Krasnodar wins the match
