Command Analysis
Rennes
In the Europa League, the Bretons started in Austria, but could not beat the Storm. The match ended in a goalless draw, although the opponents scored once each. However, the referee canceled the goal of the Burgundians due to a hand game, and the Austrians recorded an offside. The wards of Frank Eze inflicted a crushing defeat on Auxerre in the last round of Ligue 1. The red-blacks scored one goal in the first and three in the second half, and the final whistle recorded the score 4:1. We note the Senegalese striker Boulaye Dia, who came on as a substitute in the 77th minute and was able to score a double.
OFI Crete
The team made its way to the European stage for the first time in its history.Winning the Greek Cup was a key step towards the Europa League. In the final, OFI beat PAOK 3-2 after extra time. This victory was the first major trophy for the club since 1987 and gave a direct ticket to the qualifying playoff round of the second most important European tournament, where CSKA Sofia was defeated (2:0 and 3:0). In the first round, the team of Troyanos Dellas was able to defeat the German Hoffenheim (2:0) and earned the first three points of the tournament.
We can assume that Frank Eze's team will be rehabilitated for the draw in Austria against Sturm and will punish a less experienced opponent. The red-blacks look powerful on their own field and have not suffered a single defeat at home since the start of the season, and they defeated Auxerre in the last round. Rennes, in our opinion, is a clear favorite, and the class difference is very large. OFI lost the last away game by a three–goal margin, and the defense has recently had gaps - five goals conceded in two games. We believe that it will not be difficult for the French to get the better of the Greeks with a difference of several goals.
Prediction– Rennes wins with a handicap (-1.5) of the ball with a coefficient of 1.70
