Sturm Graz vs Rennes prediction

THE FORECAST

Sturm Graz has only 3 days rest and is dealing with a severely depleted defense due to four suspensions (Kayombo, Wlodarczyk, Diakité, Geyrhofer) plus multiple injured players, which significantly undermines their home advantage. Rennes, on the other hand, is in good Ligue 1 form but is also rotating their squad with an eye on the league match in 3 days, which limits their attacking power. The weather conditions are neutral and are not a factor, and given Sturm Graz's low attacking output (0.5 goals p/w) and the expected rotations at Rennes, a cautious, low-scoring match is the most likely scenario.
