In horrific form at the moment, Rennes cannot seem to lay claim to a single victory. They are currently on a three-game losing streak, and are sliding down the ladder in the French Ligue 1. Surely, Les Rennais have to pick form sooner rather than later.

Meanwhile, Chelsea are enjoying a stupendous run of form – consistently posting three points on the board and grabbing a handful of goals. Heading into this CL fixture as overwhelming favorites, count on the Blues to live up to the billing.

Rennes vs Chelsea Team News

The previous domestic campaign was a memorable one for Julien Stephan’s side, as the French gaffer led them to a third-place finish on the log. They were one of the few sides to make a difference in the league, and got a CL spot as a reward.

Now turning out on the grandest European stage, Rennes have a great opportunity to show their credentials to the whole world. So far, they are failing in their tracks. With only one point from their opening three games, Les Rennais occupy fourth-place on the log.

In fact, Stephan’s charges have only picked up a single point in the competition – one that was squeezed out in a hard-fought one-all draw against Krasnodar. Though this isn’t how Rennes dreamt of playing out their CL campaign – here we are!

They were in action against this Chelsea side on matchday 3, and were comfortably swept under the carpet in a humiliating 3-0 defeat. Failing to cause the Blues any sort of troubles, Rennes were effectively taken to the cleaners.

Their European struggles aside, the Red and Blacks have been phenomenal in the French Ligue 1, boasting 18 points from 11 games, and just six points shy of the summit. Should they manage to translate their domestic form to the CL, Rennes could be unstoppable.

On Tuesday, they will have their work cut-out against Chelsea, who are currently leading the pack in Group H with seven points on board. The Blues aren’t in this competition for beer and skittles, and have already made their huge ambitions well-known.

Lampard’s men were made to bend over backwards to see off Newcastle United 3-0 on the last matchday, ensuring they will be headed into this CL fixture with victory in the bag. Count on the Pensioners to deliver some top-drawer performance here.
