Rennes v Brest: European push meets in-form visitors | OneFootball

Rennes host Brest in Ligue 1 on Saturday, 13 December 2025 at Roazhon Park, with the hosts defending sixth place and the visitors aiming to stretch a three-game winning run and climb the table.

Rennes sit sixth on 24 points, while Brest are 10th with 19. The recent head to head leans towards the hosts, who recorded eight wins to Brest's three, with seven draws across the listed meetings.

Form points to a tight contest. Rennes won four straight before a 5-0 defeat at PSG last weekend. Brest have hit their stride with three wins on the spin, including a 1-0 victory over Monaco, after a draw and a loss.

Selection could matter. Jérémy Jacquet is suspended for Rennes. Brest are without Ludovic Ajorque through suspension, and Radosław Majecki, Rémy Labeau Lascary, Justin Bourgault and Luck Zogbé are injured.

On the pitch, Rennes average 1.6 goals per game with 50% possession and 84.92% pass accuracy. Estéban Lepaul has eight league goals and 11 goal contributions, with Breel Embolo on four goals. Brest play with 44% possession, have won 246 aerial duels and deliver open play crosses at 26.99% accuracy. Romain Del Castillo has six league goals and Kamory Doumbia four. Brest have earned seven penalties, while Rennes have conceded four, which could be a factor.

A home win would take Rennes to 27 points and could firm up their European push. Victory for Brest would move them to 22 points and may lift them further into the top half.
