Ligue 1 2025-2026: Lorient-Rennes, the likely formations

The match will be played on Sunday and will be refereed by Jérôme Brisard, who will blow the whistle at 3 p.m. Lorient takes on Rennes at the Stade Yves Allainmat – Le Moustoir in a match that promises to be hard-fought and charged with tension and that comes right after the season opener: indeed, the second day of Ligue1 is being staged these days.

The hosts led by Olivier Pantaloni seek redemption after the away defeat against Auxerre, while Rennes arrives with enthusiasm thanks to the victory over Marseille. Two teams with different moods but a common goal: not to settle for a little point.

Lorient, which was in Ligue 2 last season, has won all four of its last direct clashes against Rennes in Ligue 1, including the last three by 2-1
