Already out of the Europa League, Stade Rennes will play its final group phase game, on Thursday at Atlético Madrid. A prestigious game which will be used to give time on the field to players lacking it, rather than experience to the first team regulars.

Europa League, Atlético Madrid - Stade rennais, Thursday 21:05 CET and Ligue 1, Ajaccio - Stade rennais, Sunday 17:00 CET. Flown to Madrid this Wednesday evening, an enlarged Rennes squad of 25 players will then fly directly to Corsica without returning to Brittany. Without Dalmat but with Apam, Boukari, Kembo and Mangane.

Ligue 1, Stade Rennais 1 - 1 Brest. Behind on the score board after fifteen minutes, Rennes reacted well and equalised through Danzé. Antonetti’s men could not convert their domination with a goal. Because of their inability to find solutions and finish off chances, the Rennes are dropping two points at home.

Ligue 1, Stade rennais - Brest, Saturday 19:00 CET. Although he suffered a light thigh injury, Jirès Kembo is in the squad to face Brest. This is not the case for Razak Boukari, once again injured and out of the squad.

Before the derby against Brest, Frédéric Antonetti regrets that Stade Rennes is considered as equal to Lille, Lyon, Marseille and Paris. He explains that the difference in terms of financial power and the work accomplished by the club’s academy should be acknowledged more clearly.

Ligue 1, Nice 2 - 0 Stade Rennais. Against a solid Nice team, Stade Rennes was unrecognisable this Saturday evening. Lacking inspiration, lacking fighting-spirit, the « Rouge et Noir » have known one of their very typical bad days, and were logically beaten in a game wrapped-up by Nice before the interval.

Scoring nearly two goals a game in Ligue 1, Stade Rennes has got a few creative, unpredictable players this season. A round-up of the available forwards before the trip to Nice on Saturday.

Ligue 1, Nice - Stade rennais, Saturday 21:00 CET. At the Stade du Ray this Saturday , Frédéric Antonetti should start with most of the players who took part in the victories against Lyon and Évian. With Mangane and Kana-Biyik, only the defence is surrounded with question-marks.

Europa League, Stade rennais 0 - 0 Udinese. Following another draw against the Italian from Udinese, Stade Rennes has definitely lost its hopes of qualifying. The Rennais will play a friendly game in Madrid, since the Spanish team has already guaranteed its qualification.

Europa League, Stade Rennais - Udinese, Wednesday 19:00 CET. Forced to win if they want to keep their hopes of a qualification alive, Stade Rennes will field a “B” team against Udinese this Wednesday nonetheless. An opportunity for some to bounce back, for the other to take a breather.
