Rennes predicted XI v Olympiacos: Esteban Lepaul remains sidelined

Rennes predicted XI v Olympiacos: Esteban Lepaul remains sidelined Esteban Lepaul is still not fit for Stade Rennais and will miss out on their UEFA Europa League encounter against Olympiacos on Wednesday night. This game, initially scheduled to take place on Thursday night, was brought forward after Rennes’ weekend fixture against OGC Nice was also advanced due to the ongoing protests across France. Lepaul has yet to return and it now looks unlikely that he will do so before the impending international break. He is not expected to be in the France squad, which will be announced on Friday, as a result. He is the only injury-related absence for Rennes ahead of this game against Greek Side Olympiacos. Franck Haise can therefore count on a settled side and few changes – if any – are expected tonight. Rennes likely line-up v Olympiacos Brice Samba; Mahamadou Nagida, Anthony Rouault, Charlie Cresswell, Abdelhamid Ait-Boudlal, Bryan Reynolds; Mahdi Camara, Valentin Rongier, Adrien Thomasson; Moussa Al-Taamari, Boulaye Dia.
