PSG will be looking to pick up another win to keep pace with Lyon at the top of the table. Live Soccer TV's match preview provides match facts, team news, and global broadcast listings for Rennes vs. PSG.

Preview: Rennes vs PSG

Last season, Rennes shocked French football by beating PSG in the Coupe de France final. Although they failed to repeat this same upset in the French Super Cup as PSG beat them 2-1, the hosts will be keen on trying to cause Thomas Tuchel's side problems as they host them on Sunday.

It will be a lot easier said than done. Although there's no Neymar in the side, they clearly have shown that's no issue as they cruised to an easy 3-0 win on opening day.

Meanwhile, ex Torino and AC Milan striker M'Baye Niang, who had an excellent campaign last season as he finished as his team's top marksman with 14 goals across all comps, has now been signed on a permanent deal and will be leading the line but without new man Flavien Tait who misses out due to a red card.

Rennes: The hosts will be missing Flavien Tait due to a ban. Otherwise, they should have everyone else available for this match.

PSG: Meanwhile, visiting side PSG will be missing veteran midfielder Ander Herrera, while Neymar continues to be absent from the squad due to other off-the-pitch issues.
