Stade Rennais and Olympique de Marseille face each other for the 26th day of Ligue 1, this Sunday (5:05 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
After 5 consecutive victories, the Jean-Louis Gasset version of Olympique de Marseille suffered its first setback on Thursday on the Villarreal pitch (1-3). The Marseillais were very scared to validate their ticket for the quarter-finals of the Europa League, where they will meet Benfica.
While waiting for this deadline, it is Rennes which presents itself on the road to an OM team in full renewal on the scale of Ligue 1. A real test for the formation of Gasset, which had tamed opponents from bottom of the table in recent weeks. Opposite, the Rennais intend to make a move after having also started a very positive dynamic in 2024. It will perhaps be without the Belgian Arthur Theate. “ He took new exams at the beginning of the afternoon, that will decide if he can train tomorrow and be lined up on Sunday“explained Julien Stéphan.
The expected compositions
Rennes : Mandanda – G. Doué, Omari, Belocian, Truffert – Bourigeaud, Matusiwa, Santamaria – Blas, Kalimuendo, Gouiri.
OM : Lopez – Clauss, Mbemba, Balerdi, Merlin – Veretout, Kondogbia, Harit – Ndiaye – Sarr, Aubameyang.
