I can see this being bottled. Rennes are a better outfit than Slavia Prague. 
 

 

It’s not ‘bottling’ to lose to a better (on the day) team 

[SemperEadem]

Absolute talent factory of French players.

[AKCJ]

Hopefully Doku impresses us enough to get our attention without him knocking us out.

[CrispinLA in Texas]

With all this negative talk here....now I'm thinking we'll lose heavily 😟

[AKCJ]

Matches played on 10th and 17th March (home leg 1st). Hopefully Fofana is back enough to start those games.

 

Schedule goes - Leeds (H) > Rennes (H) > Arsenal (A) > Rennes (A) > Brentford (H)

 

I would say sack off the Arsenal game.

[Jobyfox]

Do we need a debate on how to pronounce: “Rennes”?

 

I’m assuming it’s like: “Ron”, but said with an extended vowel sound and a Gallic shrug? 

[Stade Rennais Fan]

Hi lads, Rennes supporter here. I'm sure we'll have great matches. Couldn't tell who is the favorite. FYI, we probably have the best and the most beautiful collective game in all Ligue 1. In good days we are able to score 4 to 6 goals, especially at home. We beat PSG, Lyon very easily, but we sometimes get a bit stressed and fail to exploit our chances. We have a young team and thus we can make deadly mistakes and lack character sometimes, if all doesn't go too well.

 

What can we expect from Leicester ?

Its a ballache to get to considering its not that far

Some people revel in it. It defines them although they cant bring themselves to see it or admit it. You have to ask what it is about them that needs to be like that.

Not entirely true. Two is adequate as long as they’re within 270 days. Or proof of Covid within six months, I think these are general EU rules.

You can expect us to concede easily with our ropey defence, especially from set pieces.

Salut et bienvenu!  

 

Rennes need to avoid winning corners at any cost.  We are deadly at defensive corners.  

 

We express our love for opposition goalkeepers by affectionately shouting "you're shit arggggggggggh" at them.

On a good day, you can expect the same from us. The problem is, we haven't had a good day since last season.

Sounds familiar  

 

I put Rennes as favourite, but I haven't really followed your recent form.

End of the day, either team can win. We can beat any team in the competition at any time. 

 

Yes, our form will come into play so i understand the concern but if we want to be better we have to win these games. I think we have a chance. They are 5th but look at the table there are  6 teams below them all within 2 to 4 points. Heck,  2nd place to 11th are separated by 10 points. 

 

In epl 2nd to 11th are separated by 31

 

End of the day , if we dont win we dont deserve it.

 

Lets kick some arse and believe for once even if we have to believe in vestergaard

 

I will put the alcohol away now.

This, and Ligue 1's standard is clearly not as good as the PL.

It sounds like on paper we have two teams that are capable of great football but also capable of conceding a lot of goals due to poor defending. On paper it should be a good couple of games

 

 

I would make you favourites for the tie. If you do beat us, hopefully it's convincingly and enough to see Rodgers finally gone. 

 

 

[oxtonfox]

Was Rennes the setting for the 80s series ‘ALLO ALLO? 

I can see Brendan taking the lead role as Rene and Vestergaard as the gendarme. 😆

[Tanya]

Tough draw but you have to have faith. Hopefully Wes will be back for this. Full strenght side with Vardy. We'll give them a game. Up the Foxes!

[FoxyPalace.com]

This draw alone gives me indigestion just thinking about it ! OH HECK

Not really being bottled is it? They are 5th in the French league and a good side. They will be favourites, unlike Slavia Prague.

On paper we should still be winning this game.
