Lyon vs Rennes

Lyon have won three of their last five matches against Rennes in Ligue 1 (L2), as many as in the previous 11 (D2 L6). This is the first time OL have scored at least four goals against the SR in the top-flight since February 2003 (already 4-1).

Lyon are currently on a run of four home wins in Ligue 1, for the first time since April-September 2022 (8).

Rennes have taken just 0.6 points per game against teams currently in the top half of the Ligue 1 table since Habib Beye's first game on the bench in February (W1 L4), compared with 2.6 against teams in the second half of the table over the period (W6 L1).

Lyon have lost six of their last nine home games against Rennes in Ligue 1 (W3), not losing more often to any other team at home in the last 10 years (6 also v Lille and Paris SG).

Rennes have scored at least three goals in five of their last seven meetings against Lyon, including the two most recent ones. The Bretons could score at least three times in three consecutive matches against the same opponent in the top-flight in the 21st century for the third time, after having already done so against Metz (5 in 2021-24) and... Lyon (3 in 2021-22).

Lyon have scored and conceded at least one goal in each of their last seven matches in all competitions (18 scored, 17 conceded), and could equal their longest such streak in the 21st century (8 in April-May 2017).

Rennes have won each of their last two Ligue 1 matches (5-1 v Le Havre, 2-1 v Nantes), and haven’t won three straight games in the top-flight since December 2023-February 2024 (6).

Lyon have won each of their last three Ligue 1 games, having not won more in a row at home in the top-flight since April-September 2022 (8). OL could also score at least two goals in six consecutive home matches in the top-flight for the first time since that run in 2022 (9).
