Seeking to win their first four Ligue 1 matches for the first time this century, Lyon will travel to Roazhon Park on Sunday for a date with Rennes.
The club from Brittany claimed a fourth point this season thanks to a 1-1 draw at Angers the last time out, while OL maintained their 100% record by defeating Marseille 1-0.
After a solid opening match to the new campaign, Stade Rennais have struggled, dropping points in back-to-back league contests.
Habib Beye’s men were fortunate to allow only one against Angers, with the latter registering seven efforts on target despite only having 36% of the possession.
Dating back to last season, this side have won their last three Ligue 1 affairs at Roazhon Park, conceding just a single goal over that stretch.
Another victory this weekend would mark the first time they have won at least four successive home contests in Ligue 1 since August-September 2023, when they collected five straight triumphs in Brittany.
Two of the last three times that they scored first, this team failed to hang on, including in their previous away match versus Angers, while losing 4-2 to Marseille on the final matchday of last season.
