Rennes predicted XI v AC Milan: Alidu Seidu to start to counter Rafael Leão threat
Alidu Seidu is set to be preferred to the more attack-minded Guéla Doué at right-back for Stade Rennais in order to counter the threat posed by AC Milan winger Rafael Leão during Thursday’s UEFA Europa League encounter at the San Siro.
Rennes doesn’t have any fresh injury concerns. However, Enzo Le Fée is the major absentee having suffered an injury during last week’s Coupe de France victory over Sochaux. The France youth international is set to miss several weeks of competition with a muscular injury, which will also see him miss out on the squad for the return leg.
In attack, it is expected that the in-form duo of Martin Terrier and Arnaud Kalimuendo will get the nod with Julian Stéphan expected to deploy a 4-4-2.
