Rennes vs Brest Prediction: The Derby de la Bretagne

Rennes vs Brest: Prediction and odds on the Match on 13 December 2025

The Breton derby between Rennes and Brest brings a lot of excitement in the 15th round of Ligue 1. The two teams, Rennes and Brest, separated by five points, look to consolidate their positions in the top half of Ligue 1 when they meet at the Roazhon Park stadium on Saturday, December 13. Both teams enter this derby clash with great confidence and attacking ambitions which guarantees a great match and excitement.

Rennes: Form and Statistics

Rennes won 24 points after 15 rounds played and are currently in 6th place in the table. The series of four consecutive triumphs was interrupted in the last round when they were defeated by PSG with 5:0, but that match certainly did not disturb today's host much. Coach Habib Beye was unhappy after his team's lackluster performance, but sixth place in the table still keeps their European hopes alive. With 24 points, Rennes have seven more than last season at the same stage, but Monaco are seriously threatening. They are impressive at home - only one loss in seven matches (4 wins, 2 draws). However, the absence of defender Jeremy Jacquet due to suspension and the continued recovery of Sek Fofana present defensive problems. Their goal is to qualify for Europe, and they are currently on the right track, and the results at home are very promising this season.

Rennes: Team News

🔖Rennes predicted lineup (3-5-2): Brice Samba (GK), Abdelhamid Ait Boudlal, Anthony Rouault, Lilian Brassier, Przemyslaw Frankowski, Mahdi Camara, Valentin Rongier, Djaoui Cisse, Mousa Tamari, Esteban Lepaul, Breel Embolo.

Brest: Form and Statistics

After 15 rounds played, Brest are in 11th position with 19 points, and after a series of very bad results at the end of last month, they entered a positive streak. They are currently on a streak of three consecutive triumphs, the last of which was against Monaco at home with a score of 1:0. These matches showed that they have quality, and I believe that they will show it in this meeting as well. They are on a streak of three consecutive triumphs against Rennes in this stadium. However, they will have to play without the suspended Ludovic Ajorque, while goalkeeper Radoslaw Majecki is questionable due to a knee injury.

Both teams are in the top ten in terms of goals scored in the league, but neither of them can boast of a reliable defense.
