Best Tip: Both teams to score

Both Rennes and Montpellier fans should get a chance to celebrate as their teams go head-to-head, with a match prediction of both teams to score looking a much better pick than any bet on the full time result market. The two clubs are more than capable of finding the net, as is borne out by the statistics and past head-to-head data below. Even the bookies odds are not finding much to pick between the sides, as striking power and defensive options suggest each team is capable of both scoring and conceding. Both teams to score is the tip of the day here.
