Head-to-head statistics Rennes - Nantes

Stade Rennes Team Overview
🔴 Rennes have been inconsistent lately, sitting in 11th place with little motivation in the league. Over their last eight matches, they've recorded four wins and four losses. It's worth noting that the "Red and Blacks" are known for their uncompromising style. Rennes have gone 23 consecutive matches, including cup games, without a draw. Consequently, head coach Habib Beye has yet to see his team draw a game since taking charge at the end of January 2025.
🔗 Notably, right winger Carlos Gomez has recovered from an injury. He played the last 15 minutes in the recent match against Le Havre, scoring a goal and picking up a yellow card. That goal marked his second of the season.
❌ The participation of right winger Ludovic Blas and central defender Mikael Faye in the upcoming match is doubtful. Goalkeeper Dogan Alemdar and central defender Alidu Seidu have been sidelined with long-term injuries.

Nantes Team Overview
🟡 Nantes currently sit 13th in Ligue 1, just three points clear of the relegation playoff zone. Their remaining fixtures offer some opportunities, but they'll need to work hard to secure points, especially in their away game against Rennes. Last season, Rennes won both head-to-head clashes, but Nantes claimed victory in their first meeting this season. Can Antoine Kombouaré's side replicate Rennes' double success from last season?
🔝 Nantes' standout performer in terms of goals and assists is Moses Simon (7 goals, 9 assists), who is in excellent form. The left winger has contributed 2 goals and 3 assists in his last 7 Ligue 1 appearances. He was the one who scored against Rennes in their earlier 1-0 win this season.
❌ There are doubts over the availability of defensive midfielder and captain Pedro Chirivella, right-back Fabien Centonze, and center-back Nathan Zeze for the match. Defensive midfielder Francis Coquelin is ruled out due to injury.
