AS Monaco knows what to expect. Ejected from the podium after LOSC's flashy victory against Olympique de Marseille on Friday, the Rocher club must achieve a positive result against Rennes, Sunday in Ligue 1 (28th day), to regain its third place.
Depending on Brest's result a little earlier today against Metz (1 p.m.), Adi Hütter's men could even seize the runner-up place of Paris Saint-Germain at the start of this hectic final sprint in the heights of the Championship. If the Monegasques are riding a good dynamic of five matches without defeat (three wins, two draws), Julien Stéphan's players remain on two setbacks, including an elimination in the semi-final of the Coupe de France by PSG (1 -0).
Eighth in the Championship and therefore outside the European folding seats - seventh place could be European depending on the winner of the Coupe de France - Stade Rennes will have to make a move to hope to overtake OM and catch up with the lead.
The match between AS Monaco and Stade Rennes is scheduled to kick off at 5:05 p.m. this Sunday, April 7. The match will be broadcast live on Canal+ Foot and Prime Video.
