We said: Saint-Etienne 0-1 Rennes

After a win last weekend, adding more talent to the squad should provide results for a club who have taken a huge gamble in the transfer market, and Rennes will enter this fixture as slight favourites, despite their horrendous away form. Saint-Etienne know they can move back out of the bottom three with victory here, and it would also mark their 50th win over Rennes, but they have failed to pick up three points in any of their last eight Ligue 1 home games against their upcoming opponents, last winning in 2012.
