The Stade Rennais is set to play their final Ligue 1 match against Olympique de Marseille at the Stade Vélodrome on Sunday, May 17, 2026. With a victory against Paris FC secured last weekend, the team is within reach of Europe’s elite competition. Should they triumph over the struggling Phocéens while Lille falters against Auxerre—or should Lyon fail to beat Lens—Rennes could climb to third place, securing a Champions League berth for next season. Even if these scenarios don’t unfold, a non-loss against Marseille would guarantee a place in the Europa League. Live coverage begins at 8:30 PM CET on ICI Armorique, with kickoff at 9:00 PM CET. Commentary by François Rauzy and Flavien Tait, a former Rennes player who experienced the Champions League with the club in 2020.

This fixture also marks a reunion with Habib Beye, who managed Rennes earlier this season. His tenure ended amid a frosty atmosphere, exacerbated by mismanagement of key players. His return to face his former club will undoubtedly draw intense scrutiny.
