Prediction: 2-1
Rennes
Stade Louis II will be the centre of attention when Monaco and Rennes square off against each other in an eagerly-awaited Ligue 1 game. Les Rouges et Blancs produced a brilliant display in a 5-2 win over Metz, with the team remaining in the Champions League berth, but they should not stop now. USA forward Folarin Balogun is widely expected to return to the starting XI after scoring a brace against les Grenats, while both Guillermo Maripan and Mohamed Camara are sidelined with injuries.
Meanwhile, les Rouges et Noirs failed to impress in a 2-0 loss to Strasbourg. Rennes have been struggling on the travels this season and, taking everything into account, we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Monaco’s party at Stade Louis II. Midfielder Ludovic Blas is back from suspension, while there are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
