CLS Score
3rd luckiest of 18 in the Ligue 1

Rennes have had fortune smiling on them. The CLS says they're getting more than they deserve based on underlying performance. Not outrageous, but don't be surprised when the wheels start wobbling. Top driver: xPTS Gap (+8.5 CLS impact). 4 more points than xG simulations predict they deserve
