An injury forced Rennes to replace Przemysław Frankowski with Quentin Merlin (51.).

Brice Samba denied Kamory Doumbia's header (71.) and tipped away Soumaila Coulibaly's effort (82.) as Brest pressed for an equaliser.

Merlin then crossed for Mohamed Meïté to seal the result (87.).

Lepaul is now on nine league goals, joint second in the Ligue 1 scoring chart.

Rennes controlled 60.7% possession. Brice Samba made six saves.

Brest remain 11th. Next, Rennes host Les Sables in the Coupe de France. Brest visit Avranches in the Coupe de France.
