Rennes saw their four-match unbeaten run in the league come to an abrupt halt as Lyon shipped four past them in an emphatic victory.
That loss extended their winless run to two games, after Sturm Graz first held Rennes to a goalless draw in the Europa League.
Despite the winless streak, Franck Haise’s side are currently enjoying their best-ever start to a Ligue 1 campaign since 2020/21.
The hosts welcome Auxerre with a fully-fit squad, whereas Auxerre are without Bryan Okoh, Marvin Senaya and Assane Diousse. Christ Makosso will also miss this clash through suspension.
Will Still began his AJA tenure with three successive league defeats, two of them away from home.
However, Auxerre quickly bounced back with back-to-back wins – first dispatching Nice 1-0, before beating Brest 2-1.
Auxerre now have the chance to equal their longest winning run since gaining promotion in 2024.
