Winner on Sunday at Le Havre, Stade Rennais has eight victories in a row before challenging Olivier Giroud and AC Milan in the Europa League.

This is a welcome series for Stade Rennais before heading to Milan on Thursday for the Europa League play-offs. The team coached by Julien Stéphan now has eight consecutive victories, in all competitions, after that obtained Sunday in Le Havre (0-1).

A goal from Bourigeaud (60th), his 50th in the elite of French football, was enough for the Bretons to win on the Normandy lawn of the Océane stadium in this meeting of the 21st day of Ligue 1.

AC-Milan-Stade Rennais, it will be the poster of the C3 at San Siro in four days, against the Rossoneri and its French contingent: Olivier Giroud, Théo Hernandez, Mike Maignan and Yacine Adli.
