Prediction: 1-0
Stade Rennes
Monaco will be looking to save the season by winning the Coupe de la Ligue title. Les Rouges et Blancs have been struggling in the Ligue 1 this term and, no doubt, they are desperate to give fans some cheer. Coach Thierry Henry has a number of injury worries ahead of the quarter-finals of the League Cup, but seeing that the hosts want this win more than the visitors, we are tempted to put our money on Radamel Falcao and Co. Rennes, on the other hand, set up a meeting with Monaco by beating Nantes in front of home fans. Les Rouges et Noirs aim to go all the way in the Coupe de la Ligue this season, but seeing that Monaco want this win more, home win should be considered. In their last meeting in the league Rennes emerged triumphant, meaning that Thierry Henry’s troops are hungry for revenge.
