Stade Rennais travels to Marseille this Sunday (8:45 p.m., 14th day of Ligue 1). A meeting that Steve Mandanda could miss.

This will be the closing match of the fourteenth day of Ligue 1. Sunday evening (8:45 p.m.), Stade Rennais will travel to the south of France to challenge Olympique de Marseille. While the Bretons are a small point ahead of the evening hosts, the result will be important in the standings for two teams in succession. But a key player could be missing from the Rennes ranks.

According to information reported on Saturday by The Team, Steve Mandanda did not take part in the training session today. The former French international is ill, explained the media. His withdrawal has not yet been mentioned, but his direct replacement, Gauthier Galon, is ready. And it would not be the first time this season that he replaced his elder in front of the Breton cage since it was he who started last November 9 in the Europa League, while Mandanda was suffering from a knee.
