Europa League match between Rennes and Olympiacos faces uncertainty

The scheduled Europa League match between Rennes and Olympiacos is facing potential disruption due to planned mass demonstrations and a general strike in France on November 5.

Local authorities in Ille-et-Vilaine have informed Rennes management that available police forces will be required to manage the protests, making it difficult to guarantee the necessary security measures for the match.

Rennes is currently in discussions with French authorities and UEFA to consider three possible scenarios: moving the match one day earlier to November 4, postponing the game to a later date, or relocating the match to a neutral venue. No final decision has been made.
