They come to this match after a away win against Le Puy F.43 Auvergne by (1‑3). For the league, Rennes won 17 points out of 30 possible points, after 5 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses in the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 9 of the last 12 for this competition have ended with Over 2,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 9 of their 23 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 12 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 6 of their 16 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Rennes enters this round motivated after a 1-3 away win at the Le Puy stadium, counting for the French Cup: Arthur Theate and Benjamin Bourigeaud scored the winning goals. The home team usually plays in a 4-4-2 tactical system, favoring a more offensive style of play, attacking through the central corridor, with offensive transitions as their main weapon. It should be noted that, in this formation, the two players responsible for creating panic in the opposing defense should be Arnaud Kalimuendo and Amine Gouiri. The home team's style of play is quite aggressive, especially when the mission is to regain possession of the ball. For this match, coach Julien Stéphan should not be able to count on Enzo Le Fée and Mahamadou Nagida as they are currently handed over to the medical department.

Confirmed Lineup: Steve Mandanda, A. Seidu, Warmed Omari, Adrien Truffert, Arthur Theate, Benjamin Bourigeaud, Baptiste Santamaria, Desire Doue, Ludovic Blas, Arnaud Muinga, Martin Terrier.
Coach: J. Sampaoli Moya.
