Rennes vs Marseille 05.03.2023

After a thrilling game last Thursday against the Ukrainian team Shakhtar Donetsk, Rennes was eliminated from the Europa League playoff round. Stade Rennais must perform well in the upcoming matches after falling to fifth place if they want to compete in Europe again next season. A win on Sunday against Nantes will have given them the motivation.

Despite having one of the most passionate fan bases in Ligue 1 One may interpret Marseille’s Cup de France loss to Annecy as a reflection of their current campaign. Whether it was their painful group stage result that effectively eliminated them from European contention or their cup defeat to a brave Annecy team, Marseille’s inconsistent play this season has been even more puzzling.

It should be quite a close match when these two teams meet on Sunday night at Roazhon Park. Rennes are looking to claw their way into the champions league spots for next season while Marseille are trying to win the League. This match could go either way. A Rennes or Marseille win.
