One of the semi-final matchups of the French Cup will take place on Wednesday in Paris, where the local PSG will host Rennes at the "Parc des Princes." We offer a prediction for this match from the expert team at Dailysports.
PSG
The Parisians have long lacked consistent competition on the domestic front. Yes, occasionally there are teams like Monaco or Lille that pose a threat, yet this season hasn't deviated from the norm. PSG confidently leads in Ligue 1, maintaining a 12-point lead over the nearest competitor, Brest.
In their last match, PSG visited Marseille, where they defeated the local club 2-0. The last time Parisians faced defeat was in early November, when they lost to Milan in the Champions League. In the league, their unbeaten streak has persisted since mid-September, when the capital club lost to Nice at home.
Rennes
The "Red and Blacks" are certainly far behind PSG. However, Rennes won the French Cup in 2019 and finished third in 2020, earning the right to play in the Champions League. Yet, this season hasn't been as successful for Rennes, and the team risks missing out on European competitions.
Last weekend, Rennes suffered a 0-2 defeat to Strasbourg away. This loss marked their second defeat in the last four rounds. Currently, Rennes sits in eighth place in the Ligue 1 table, trailing teams in European competition spots by three points.
Interesting Match Facts and Head-to-Head History
