Olympique Lyonnais welcomes Stade Rennais for the 19th day of Ligue 1, this Friday (9 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
Enticing on paper, this poster at the opening of the 19th day of Ligue 1 will pit two of the most disappointing teams of this season against each other. Stuck in the depths of the ranking, Olympique Lyonnais fell again for its first in the championship this year by losing on the Le Havre pitch (1-3). In Normandy, the Gones have been weighed down by everything they have been lacking for 7 months: a glaring lack of discipline (2 red cards), an inability to make the most of the highlights, and individuals not always at the service of the collective.
Sixteenth, OL will count on its winter recruits to try to win against an opponent who has become their bane in the recent era of Ligue 1. But Bruno Genesio is no longer there. It was Julien Stéphan who took charge of Stade Rennais, and like Pierre Sage, the French technician has had mixed fortunes since his arrival. Connected to alternating current, the Rennais are stuck in tenth place in Ligue 1 after an encouraging success against Nice two weeks ago. The stage is set.
The expected compositions:
Lyon : Lopes – Adryelson, Lovren, Tagliafico – Mata, Caqueret, Tolisso, Henrique – Fofana, Cherki – Lacazette.
Rennes : Mandanda – G. Doué, Omari, Théate, Truffert – Bourigeaud, Le Fée, Santamaria, D. Doué – Kalimuendo, Terrier.
Where to watch the game ?
This match counting for the 19th day of Ligue 1 between Olympique Lyonnais and Stade Rennais will be broadcast this Friday on Prime Video, from 9 p.m. It will also be possible to watch it on the Amazon group’s streaming platform, via the Ligue 1 Pass.
