As initially announced by the club, there should be no public at Roazhon Park on August 12 for the reception of Saint-Etienne. Stade Rennais is working on the development of a health protocol to find its audience when Ligue 1 resumes. This protocol could have been tested life-size on August 12, with the reception of ASSE. A possibility for a while considered by the club.
If the law allows in theory the Stade Rennais to accommodate a maximum of 5,000 people in its stadium, the prefecture would not be willing to organize such an event for the time being, in a department where new cases of Covid-19 are on the rise for several weeks.
The Rouge et Noir supporters should therefore find their enclosure at best on August 29, for the reception of Montpellier on the second day of the championship.
Contacted, the prefecture tells us not to confirm, for the moment, to have refused a presence of the public during the meeting against Saint-Etienne.
This match between the SRFC and the ASSE will be to be followed on the antenna of France Bleu Armorique from 7 p.m. this Wednesday August 12.
