Installed in the soft underbelly of the ranking, Stade Brestois hosts Stade Rennais for a fratricidal duel in Ligue 1. On the occasion of this Breton derby, Eric Roy’s homems will try to avenge their defeat in the first leg (3-1) and get closer to definitive maintenance. Opposite, the Rouge et Noir will try to string together good performances to seek a European place.
At what time and on which channel to watch Brest – Rennes
The Breton derby will be broadcast on the Ligue 1 + channel, Saturday April 4, 2026, at 7 p.m., live for subscribers.
Brest must revive
Before the break, Stade Brestois lost to Monaco (2-0) thenโฆ to Auxerre (3-0), on the pitch in the 18th. Unable to score a single goal, the Bretons are in deep doubt. However, they had scored 4 victories in 6 days before this bad patch.
Now in 11th place, Brest no longer has much to play for, except to please their supporters. Winning the derby would already be a great gift.
Rennes aims for Europe, at a slow trot
Since the arrival of Franck Haise on the bench, Stade Rennais was doing better, with victories against Auxerre (0-3), Toulouse (1-0) and Nice (0-4). But the defeat against Lille (1-2) and the draw against the red lantern, Metz (0-0), dampened the mood.
We will have to regain efficiency to find a place in the Top 6 and finish the season in style. Monaco, 6th, is only two small points away.
