Rennes welcomes Marseille this weekend at Roazhon Park for a match counting for the 17th day of Ligue 1. After a start to the year marked by a frustrating defeat against Nice (3-2), the Rennes hope to revive against a team Marseille with full confidence. With only two points ahead of the play-off place, the stakes are high for Jorge Sampaoli’s men.
Rennes, a fortress at home
If the away results are worrying for Rennes, Roazhon Park remains a land of hope. Under the leadership of Sampaoli, the Rennais have already shown their solidity at home, stringing together two convincing victories against Saint-Étienne (5-0) and Angers (2-0). With only five goals conceded at home this season, Rennes has the best defense in the championship at home. Offensively, the attacking duo led by Gouiri and Kalimuendo will be one to watch, they who are often decisive on their home turf. However, facing a formidable away Marseille team, the task promises to be difficult for the Bretons, who have not recorded two consecutive victories against OM since 2016.
OM remains in control away from home
Roberto De Zerbi’s men enter this duel in great shape, galvanized by their 5-1 victory against Le Havre. Second in the standings with 33 points, the Olympians must continue their momentum so as not to let PSG slip away in the lead. Their impressive away record – seven wins in eight games, with an average of almost three goals per game – is testament to their dominance.
Despite this dynamic, Marseille will have to deal with a complicated context in Rennes, where they have won only one of their last four trips. But with offensive leaders like Aubameyang and Vitinha, OM have the assets to overcome this obstacle and consolidate their place on the podium.
This clash promises to be thrilling between a Rennes team keen to forget its recent setbacks and Marseille looking for points to keep the pressure on PSG.
