A draw at Roazhon Park would be enough to offer the fall championship title to theOL, for the first time since the 2008-2009 season, even if turning at the head halfway through the championship does not guarantee anything: that year, Lyon had finally finished third behind Bordeaux (champion) and Marseille.
For his part, Rennes (4th), rid of the Champions League, returned to the race for Europe but remains four lengths from the Paris Saint Germain (2nd) and Lille (3rd), and seven points behind OL, leader and currently in great shape.
Rudi Garcia’s men remain on a series of fifteen games without defeat (ten wins, five draws) when Stade Rennais has garnered 13 points out of 15 in the last five meetings. This meeting will also be the occasion, perhaps, to see a duel in the match, between Camavinga and Aouar, competitors for a place in Blue at the Euro. The two circles show opposite trajectories: the Rennais is experiencing a bit of slack while the Lyonnais sparkles.
