Nice and Rennes are scheduled to meet in Ligue 1 on Friday, 30 October 2026, at Allianz Riviera. The ninth-round match is set for 19:00 local time in France, equivalent to 18:00 UTC. BBC Sport lists the fixture as Nice v Rennes, gives the venue as Allianz Riviera and identifies the competition as French Ligue 1.
The fixture was moved to Friday evening
The league’s programming notice says the OGC Nice–Stade Rennais meeting was originally planned for Saturday 31 October at 17:15 before being advanced to Friday 30 October at 19:00. The same notice attributes the change to a request from the Alpes-Maritimes prefecture. OGC Nice’s own announcement also confirms the move and says Saturday demonstrations were expected to require a large police mobilisation, affecting match organisation.
