About the front

Bruno Genesio spoke a little about Lyon's forward line: "Apart from him (Paqueta), there are many dangerous players in this team like Houssem Aouar and Karl Toko-Ekambi. They have a performance midfielder with Bruno Guimarães and Maxence Caqueret. We cannot sum up Lyon's good results to Paqueta's influence. He obviously participated. It will be the collective response that best suits this Lyon team".

Watch out for this Rennes player

Gaëtan Laborde, Rennais striker comes into this match with 7 goals, a number he will be looking to increase in his favor; the Lyon defense will have to pay special attention to this player.

"It will be necessary to be at 100%".

Bruno Genesio spoke ahead of this match: "As every time we face a Champions League level team, it will be necessary to be at 100%, or even more, in all areas. We need to be able to repeat the game we played against Paris at home and raise the level of play compared to Thursday against Mura. We can expect a much more open match than we have seen in the last two, with two teams that will play with the desire to win the balls up high. It may suit us better, but we will also be in more danger than in the last two games."

Statement Olympique Lyonnais

Thiago Mendes spoke ahead of the match against Rennais: "I feel good, I work every day. You have to be ready to play, I'm here to help the team. The work in training is different from the games. I'm not at 100% because I didn't follow up. I have to show the coach and the fans what I am capable of. The off-season was a bit complicated for me. But the president is the one who makes the decisions, he has the final say. From the moment he said I had to stay, I started working hard."

"We have players who have been rested, who are fresh. We must keep positive thoughts to win points in Ligue 1. Our team is doing well, even if we lose games at the end of the game. We must remain vigilant. Rennes is a good team, we know that, but we have to stay focused on our objective. The important thing is to win, against any opponent."

"Today we have a very good relationship, we both talk a lot. I had many offers to leave during the break and that may have affected our relationship at the beginning. I kept working and giving everything. I just want to play and be champion at the end of the season."
