Team News

Rennes
Nice
  • Christopher Wooh should continue in a three-man backline in the absence of Jeremy Jacquet.
  • Alidu Seidu and Ayanda Sishuba continue to miss out for the home side.
  • Dante is back for Nice and having come off the bench at Reims last week, the experienced Brazilian should start for the visitors.
  • Otherwise, wholesale changes to the side that started the 1-0 victory are unlikely
  • Mohamed Abdelmonem and Youssouf Ndayishimiye are long-term absentees, while Tanguy Ndombele is again absent.

Prediction

  • Rennes are safe from relegation, are unable to reach the European spots heading into the penultimate round of fixtures, and welcome Nice having lost their last two. In addition, they have lost three of their last five at home.
  • Nice, meanwhile, remain in the hunt to finish second and they make the trip to Rennes on a three-game winning streak following their 1-0 win over Reims. Three wins from the last five away, the most recent of which was a 3-1 triumph at PSG, is a notable feat.
  • With more to play for, Nice should claim a huge three points on Saturday.
