Team News

Rennes
Nantes
  • Arnaud Kalimuendo is fit again, and should be back in the eleven after scoring last week.
  • Wingers Kamaldeen Sulemana and Jérémy Doku are still doubts after missing the team's Europa League win on Thursday.
  • Desiré Doué, Hamari Traoré and Adrien Truffert should all be back in the eleven.
  • Samuel Moutoussamy is back from suspension and should start in midfield.
  • "Joker" signing Fabien Centonze is unavailable for the visitors.
  • Ignatius Ganago and Evann Guessand are also options in attack.

Prediction

  • While Nantes have struggled with the rigours of European play this season, don't underestimate the Bretons' capacity to turn this derby into a feisty affair.
  • Unbeaten in eight in all competitions, Rennes' superior attacking options should be enough for a vital three points against their rivals.
