The defending champions will want to keep their unbeaten league run intact.

The defending champions of France PSG will return to the Parc des Princes for a weekend clash against Rennes. After four back-to-back wins, the league leaders dropped their first points of the season in the last game. It was a 1-1 draw against Reims away from home. They will hope to get back to winning ways and continue their flawless run come Saturday.

Standing in their way will be Rennes who sit just outside the top six in the eight position. The Red and Blacks have pulled off two victories alongside a draw and two defeats so far in five league games. Rennes come into this game on the back of a heartbreaking 1-1 draw to Lens where they conceded an equalizer in the 96th minute.

Neves’ positioning, high pressing and ball distribution are second to none. He has the most number of assists for his team in the opening five games. 

Ludovic Blas (Rennes)

The 26-year-old has been Rennes’ best player this season. He has stepped up to the occasion and has racked the most number of goal contributions for his side. His passing precision coupled with his creative abilities make him an unstoppable force in the middle of the park for Rennes. He has dropped in good performances this season and has two goals and assists each to his name.
