Last meeting before another truce. Still undefeated at the start of the season, the Rouge et Blanc travel to Rennes for the seventh day of Ligue 1, and want to make it four in the league. A few hours before this meeting, discover all the statistics you need to know, with the help of our partner Opta. ????
Black beast ????⬛
Stade Rennais welcomes AS Monaco for the 50th time in all competitions (18 wins, 12 draws, 19 losses), displaying a success ratio (36.7%) lower only against Paris SG (36.6%) among the opponents played at least 10 times at home. Moreover, the Breton club has lost 6 of its last 9 matches against Monaco in Ligue 1 (2 wins, 1 draw), which is as many as in the previous 15 (4 wins, 5 draws).
False start ????
If he does not win, Rennes would only have two victories after seven matches in Ligue 1 2024-2025, the 12th time that the Breton club has not reached three victories at this stage of a Ligue 1 season in the 21st century, no team does more (Nantes at 11 before this season as well).
They are a top team, especially at home where they are very solid, with already two victories and a draw against Lens. They play very proactive football. In my opinion, they are one of the best teams in the championship, especially in front of their fans. So it’s going to be a tough game, and we’ll have to be ready for that challenge, but I think we are.

Home ???? outside
The Breton club is undefeated in its last 4 home matches in Ligue 1 (2 wins, 2 draws), after losing 3 of the previous 4 (1 win). Conversely, the Rouge et Blanc have won 8 of their 10 away matches in Ligue 1 in 2024 (1 draw, 1 defeat), only Paris-SG (10/12) did better over the period.
Duel of styles ????????
Rennes is the team that has led the most at home (203 minutes) in Ligue 1 2024-2025 but AS Monaco is one of the 2 (with Nantes) not to have yet been led away.
Successful pressing ✅
The Principality club has only suffered 10 sequences of 10 passes or more in Ligue 1, at least 3 times fewer than any other team (30 for Lens). Rennes has made only 37, only Le Havre (29) has fewer.
Kryptonite ????
Author of 3 of Rennes’ last 4 goals, Arnaud Kalimuendo has never scored against Monaco in Ligue 1 (6 matches), only facing Marseille more often without finding the fault (7 matches). He could score in 4 games in a row for the very first time in his career in L1.
Under pressure ????
Folarin Balogun is the player with the highest ratio of balls touched under opposing pressure (89% – 118/132, min. 100 balls touched) in Ligue 1. This does not prevent him from finding the net, he who remains on two consecutive matches with one goal.
Captain mode on ©️
Penalty scorer in Zagreb, Denis Zakaria has been involved in 4 goals this season with Monaco in eight matches in all competitions (3 goals, 1 assist), which is already as many as last season (4 goals in 28 matches).
Centennial? ????
If he were to play this Saturday, Krépin Diatta will participate in his 100th match with AS Monaco. He would thus be the third player in the squad to reach this threshold after Aleksandr Golovin and Caio Henrique.
