Match preview
Brendan Rodgers may not be the biggest fan of the Europa Conference League but the competition could prove to be Leicester's greatest chance of success this season.
The Foxes are locked in mid-table obscurity in the Premier League, so winning the Conference League looks their most likely route into European competition next season.
But it's hard to have faith in them beating a strong Rennes side with top-four aspirations of their own.
Instead, backing over 2.5 goals looks a better approach having clicked in four of Leicester's last six matches.
Rennes, meanwhile, have seen an average of 2.89 goals per game in Ligue 1 this term with forwards Gaetan Laborde and Martin Terrier striking 27 times in the league between them.
Expect a high-scoring match at the King Power Stadium.
