Europa League: Finally, no inversion

In a press release published on their official website, Stade Rennes announced that the schedule of the Europa League third qualifying round games between the “Rouge et Noir” and the Metallurg Rustavi would finally not be inverted.

Consequently, the first leg will be played in Rustavi on July 28th, while Stade Rennes will host the Georgian team on August 4th, 19:00 CET at the Route de Lorient.
Good news for Frédéric Antonetti and his squad, who won’t have to travel to the Caucasus region three days before the restart of Ligue 1.
