This match marks the beginning of the season for Rennes, who finished last season in 12th place.

In their last friendly, Rennes played to a 2-2 draw against Genoa, with goals from Mousa Tamari and Djaoui Cissé. The home side is expected to adopt a 3-5-2 formation, focusing on quick transitions and exploiting the flanks, led by the attacking duo of Mousa Tamari and Arnaud Kalimuendo.
Team analysis: Marseille
Marseille enters this match as the runners-up from the previous season. Their performances have shown little variation whether they play at home or away, achieving 8 wins and 5 losses in their last 30 games as visitors. Their recent match saw them draw with Sevilla, concluding at 1-1. Over the last 10 away games, they have managed only 3 wins, indicating a need for improvement in their defensive capabilities, as they have conceded in 9 of those fixtures. However, their attacking prowess has been impressive, with 9 goals scored in their last 10 matches. Their matches typically feature goals, evident by the fact that in 18 of their last 19 games, there have been over 1.5 goals scored. Marseille should play in a 4-3-3 formation, featuring a potent attacking trio of Mason Greenwood, Amine Gouiri, and Jonathan Row, supported by the creative efforts of Angel Gomes and the versatile Adrien Rabiot in midfield.
