At the start of the season, the ambitions displayed were the same for AS Monaco and Stade Rennais, who dreamed of the podium in Ligue 1. As we approach the halfway point, only the first is really on target, installed in third place. Only 12th, with one victory in their last seven outings, the Bretons are in a much worse position and will therefore absolutely want to raise the bar this Saturday, when they host the ASM.
Three weeks ago, Rennes tried the electro-shock by thanking Bruno Genesio for placing on the bench a former member of the house, Julien Stéphan, back after two seasons in Strasbourg. If the coach brought back six points in the Europa League, where his club sits at the top of its group, he on the other hand suffered an annoying setback against Olympique de Marseille (2-0) last Sunday. “We have to progress if we want to move up the rankings,” he admitted after the defeat. We had the feeling that OM was takeable, we could do something better. »
As for AS Monaco, the last day was more positive on an accounting level, with a victory against Montpellier (2-0). But the result did not prevent Adi Hütter from raising the tone in the post-match press conference. “I would say it was a difficult victory,” assured the coach. It’s not enough for a team at the top of the table to play like this. We made too many easy mistakes. We will have to talk about the performance during the week. » Against Rennes, the players will probably be keen to show that the message has been sent.
The meeting between Stade Rennais and AS Monaco is scheduled for 5 p.m. this Saturday, December 9 and will be broadcast live on Prime Video.
