Rennes and Lyon face each other this Sunday for the 12th day of Ligue 1 (5:05 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
On the brink of the abyss, OL could fall even lower. Red lantern in Ligue 1, the Rhone club is under an obligation to achieve results to finally launch its season and stop the bleeding. Since the curtain rose, the Gones have still not won a single match, and their situation is getting bogged down, as this horrible campaign continues, without spring and without reaction.
It is therefore in Rennes that the Lyonnais will try to get their heads above water. And that doesn’t sound like the ideal move. Well equipped on paper, the Breton club has often been a bête noire for OL in recent seasons, especially under the tutelage of Bruno Genesio, the former member of the house driven by the taste for revenge after having been scratched for a long time by a fringe of supporters.
Rennes, for their part, cannot approach this match by puffing out their chests either. Genesio’s men have been at a standstill in Ligue 1 for several weeks. And it is in this explosive context that these two strongholds of French football will meet again at the end of the afternoon. There will be chaos in the air.
The expected compositions
Rennes : Mandanda – G. Doué, Wooh, Theate, Truffert – Blas, Bourigeaud, Matic, Le Fée – Kalimuendo, Gouiri.
Lyon : Lopes – Kumbedi, Diomandé, Lovren, O’Brien, Taglifico – Caqueret, Alvero, Tolisso – Lacazette, Nuamah.
