Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will face Rennes in a crucial Ligue 1 match at Roazhon Park, hoping to rebound from their recent disappointment in Europe. After a controversial 2-1 defeat to Newcastle United in the UEFA Champions League, where PSG’s manager Luis Enrique expressed frustration over a lack of offensive drive and late-game decisions, the team is eager for a positive outcome in this domestic fixture. PSG currently sits fourth in Ligue 1, trailing league leaders AS Monaco by four points. ‘We have to respond robustly after our European defeat,’ said Enrique during a recent press conference. The squad will be without Marco Verratti, who is sidelined due to an ankle injury, while Danilo Pereira is also a doubt due to a muscle problem. Kylian Mbappe remains a key player for the Parisians as they aim to secure a vital three points against Rennes, who are currently seventh in the league and led by coach Pierre Dreossi. Known for their strong home performances, Rennes is expected to put up a stern challenge for the visiting PSG side. Previous matchups have seen some fierce contests, with PSG’s last visit ending in a dramatic 2-2 draw. With Neymar and Mbappe both eyeing personal milestones this season, the stakes are higher than ever for this match. Fans of both sides are looking forward to what is set to be a thrilling encounter.
