Paris Saint-Germain kick off their Ligue 1 2026/27 campaign away at Roazhon Park against Rennes on August 24. As reigning champions of both France and Europe, Luis Enrique's side faces an early test after their original fixture at the Parc des Princes was moved due to pitch conditions.
History favors PSG in season openers, remaining unbeaten in their opening Ligue 1 fixtures since 2015. However, Rennes pose a tough challenge, having defeated the Parisian giants 3-1 at home last season. PSG will be without the suspended Nuno Mendes, while new signing Lucas Digne and potential debutants await their chance.
Probable Lineups
- PSG (4-3-3): Safonov; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Digne; Zaire-Emery, Vitinha, Fernandez; Doue, Dembele, Kvaratskhelia.
- Rennes (4-1-4-1): Samba; Frankowski, Boudlal, Cresswell, Merlin; Rongier; Al-Taamari, Blas, Thomasson, Soumare; Lepaul.
Prediction: PSG 2-1 Rennes
