Ligue 1, Stade rennais - Saint-Étienne, Sunday 21 :00 CET. For the home game against AS Saint-Étienne, this Sunday, Frédéric Antonetti will be able to count on his full back Chris Mavinga and on experienced midfielder Stéphane Dalmat. However, Yacine Brahimi experienced yet another relapse in Sochaux, and he will miss this game because of strong ankle pains.
After the impressive attacking festival in Sochaux only three days ago, Frédéric Antonetti decided to call a squad nearly identical to the group that travelled in the Doubs during the week. After a good introduction in the Stade Bonal, Yacine Brahimi has once again suffered with his ankle, the same ankle that prevented him from playing since the Europa League game against Rustavi. Another blow for the young Rennes midfielder, who is still failing to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
On the other hand, Chris Mavinga recovered of a thigh contracture suffered against AS Nancy Lorraine, and returns to the squad, just as Stéphane Dalmat, who was rested for the game against his former club FC Sochaux-Montbéliard. John Boye, doubtful in the last couple of days, is also included in the twenty players group called by Rennes’ Corsican manager.
Finally, Dimitri Foulquier is also coming back in the Breton squad after serving a suspension for a red card received in the CFA.
With an enlarged group of twenty players, Frédéric Antonetti is protecting himself against the possibility of seeing Boye or Pajot finally miss the game. Indeed, the young midfielder suffers with a throat infection, according to lequipe.fr. We will only know more about the team the Breton manager will be able to line-up one hour before kick-off, tomorrow evening at 21:00.
