When they play Rennes in Ligue 1 on Sunday, crisis club Lyon will try to turn things around.

The seven-time French champions are still winless this season and are firmly planted at the bottom of the standings.

Given that Lyon is still at the bottom of the league heading into the fourth month of the season, their early-season collapse is perhaps the biggest surprise in Europe's top leagues to date.

A club that won seven straight Ligue 1 championships from 2002 to 2008 now faces a very serious chance of relegation.

After taking over for Blanc, former player Fabio Grosso hasn't been able to change things around yet.

The last six teams in this situation in the top flight all ended up being relegated, with Lyon being the only team in France's top three divisions with no wins after ten games.

Even though they have a game in hand on most of the league after their match against Marseille was postponed, OL is currently seven points behind and needs to win this weekend in order to have any hope of climbing out of the bottom three.

Last weekend, they struggled to a 1-1 draw at home against Metz, and they needed a late goal from Skelly Alvero to save a point.

This weekend's hosts, Rennes, are off to their worst start in five seasons, so they haven't exactly had a great start either.

Six of Rennes' eleven Ligue 1 games this season have ended in draws, but they have only managed one point from their previous four games, which has led to a sharp decline in a very competitive league table.

Rennes has only won one of their first five league home games this season, after winning ten of their first 11 games in the previous campaign.

Just two points above the relegation playoff slot, Bruno Genesio's team enters the weekend in 11th place despite possessing one of the league's most potent attacking units—only Reims, Monaco, and Paris Saint-Germain have scored more goals.

Rennes won 3-1 here in midweek, completing a back-to-back double over Panathinaikos despite playing with 10 men for over an hour. This season, Rennes has saved their best performance for Europe.

They are already in charge of the group after a convincing victory against Maccabi Haifa at home, and playing football on the continent in the new year appears inevitable.

Due to suspension, Rennes will be without two players for this match. Warmed Omari will serve the first of two matches after receiving a red card against Nice.

Due to a cumulative yellow card accumulation, Lorenz Assignon is also suspended; nevertheless, despite their impending domestic suspension, neither defender started in midweek.

Due to a groin injury, Turkish international Bertug Yildirim will be out for his country's next matches.

Steve Mandanda, the goalkeeper, is also sidelined due to a knee ailment, while Ibrahim Salah scored on Thursday despite taking a hit.
