Stade Reims vs Stade Rennais prediction, preview, team news and more | Ligue 1 2023-24

Stade Reims and Stade Rennais bring their 2023-24 Ligue 1 campaign to an end when they lock horns at the Stade Auguste Delaune on Sunday. Having secured a 3-1 victory in November’s reverse fixture, Julien Stéphan’s side will be looking to complete the double over the hosts and make it three consecutive away wins to end the season.

Stade Rennais returned to winning ways on Wednesday when they scraped a 1-0 victory over Olympique Marseille on home turf.

Before that, Samba Diawara’s men were on a run of six consecutive games without a win, losing three and claiming three draws since mid-March.

With 44 points from 33 matches, Reims are currently 10th in the Ligue 1 table, two points and two places behind Sunday’s visitors.

Elsewhere, Ibrahim Selah came up clutch for Stade Rennais in midweek as he netted an 82nd-minute equaliser to force a 1-1 draw with Lens at Roazhon Park.

Stéphan’s men have now gone unbeaten in three of their last four outings, claiming two wins and one draw as they look to secure a top-half finish in the league table.

Rennes head into the weekend on a run of two back-to-back away victories, seeing off Nantes and Metz while scoring six goals and conceding twice since a 1-0 loss at AS Monaco on April 7.
