“Do not disperse.” Bruno Genesio was clear. The celebration of the club's 80th anniversary should not distract its men from the quest for three points this Sunday against Rennais. Especially since LOSC is starting a marathon of six matches in four weeks before the winter break and it would be good to win so as not to be sidelined from the elite podium.

Celebrate…and mark
The party will be beautiful whatever happens: A hundred former red and white glories will be present and honored on the square in front of Pierre-Mauroy, the “biggest tifo in the history of the stadium” will be deployed at the kick-off of the match and the post-match will be provided by DJ Martin Solveig.
The celebration will be complete if Benjamin André's teammates perform on the pitch. Especially since the group is strengthened by the returns to competition of Thomas Meunier, Ousmane Touré and Hakon Haraldsson. The latter had not played since the 3rd day against PSG after a solid start to the season in a more remote position than usual. Bentaleb, Umtiti, Mbappé, André Gomes (in the recovery phase) and Tiago Santos are, however, still convalescing. Ngal'ayel Mukau is suspended.
Pre-match from 2 p.m. on France Bleu Nord
Bruno Genesio will have to manage his group for the trip to Bologna on Wednesday, in the Champions League (9 p.m.). We should probably see Matias Fernandez-Pardo start in the starting lineup. The Belgian was sparkling in the first half against Nice, scoring the first goal of his career at LOSC. Facing the Dogues, a Stade Rennais in full crisis, 14th in the championship
A meeting that promises to be rich at all levels, to be followed from 2 p.m. on France Bleu Nord with Simon Jarnier and comments from Sylvain Charley and Mehdi Izeghouine live from the Pierre-Mauroy stadium. Kick-off at 3 p.m.
