Rennes - Auxerre
Last updated: Today, at Rennes and Auxerre meet at Roazhon Park in Ligue 1
Rennes enter matchday 6 looking to regain their footing after a difficult outing against Lyon. Their early season campaign has been a mix of resilience and inconsistency, highlighted by a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Marseille and a 2-2 draw with Paris Saint-Germain. Meanwhile, Auxerre arrive at Roazhon Park on a positive trajectory, having secured back-to-back league wins against Nice and Brest. This recent revival suggests they have successfully navigated their early defensive struggles, though the absence of the suspended Christ Makosso will force a tactical adjustment to their backline for this encounter.
The two sides face off on 11 October 2026, with Rennes hoping to replicate their dominant 3-0 performance from February. While the visitors carry momentum into the fixture, the expected XI for Rennes, featuring Ludovic Blas and Mousa Tamari, will aim to exploit the gaps in an Auxerre defense missing a key component. Can the hosts rediscover the form that saw them edge past Marseille, or will the visitors extend their winning run?
