Stade Rennais FC continue their push for UEFA Champions League qualification when they host an in-form Paris FC side at Roazhon Park in what promises to be an entertaining Ligue 1 clash.

Rennes suffered a damaging 4-2 defeat against Olympique Lyonnais last weekend, leaving them two points behind the Ligue 1 top four. Despite that setback, the hosts remain in strong overall form after previously winning four consecutive league matches.

The Red and Blacks have been particularly dangerous at home, winning four of their last six Ligue 1 games at Roazhon Park. Their attacking football has regularly produced goals, with each of Rennes’ previous five matches featuring over 2.5 goals.

Paris FC, meanwhile, continue to impress in their first season back in Ligue 1. Antoine Kombouaré’s side have lost only once in their last ten league matches and arrive full of confidence after a dominant 4-0 victory over Stade Brestois 29.

The visitors have also built an excellent away record, remaining unbeaten across their last seven Ligue 1 road matches. Their confidence, attacking freedom, and ability to compete with stronger teams suggest they could cause Rennes serious problems here.

Team News

Rennes are expected to remain without defenders Przemysław Frankowski and Jérémy Jacquet, creating further concerns at the back ahead of this important encounter.

Paris FC welcome back Pierre Lees-Melou from suspension and otherwise have very few injury concerns heading into the match.

Head-to-Head Record

Rennes won the reverse fixture 1-0 earlier this season, which was the first meeting between the clubs since January 1981. Historically, Rennes have enjoyed strong results at home in this fixture.
