In the most recent round of fixtures in France's top-flight league, Rennes and Nice both qualified for the Europa League next season.

The two teams secured their places in Europe's premier club competition after finishing second and third respectively during the regular season.

For Rennes, it was a significant achievement as they had finished bottom of the table last season and were forced to play in the Championship Division for much of the campaign.

However, under new manager Julien Stéphan, the team managed to turn things around and finish strongly, securing their place in Europe's elite competition.

Nice also had a strong finish to the season, despite starting the campaign poorly and struggling at times.

Under the guidance of former Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal, the team managed to turn things around and secure a place in Europe's biggest stage.

Both teams will now face tough opponents in the Europa League next season, but with their impressive performances throughout the season, they have a good chance of progressing further into the competition.

It will be interesting to see how these two teams perform in Europe's biggest club competition and what kind of impact they can make on the continent.
