Team News

Brest
Rennes
  • Pierre Lees-Melou is still working his way back from injury.
  • Massadio Haïdara is serving a one match ban after his sending off against Le Havre last time out.
  • Bradley Locko misses out following an achilles tendon rupture.
  • This gives an opportunity for Jordan Amavi who'll slot into left-back.
  • Albert Grønbaek came off the bench against PSG, but is in contention to start against Monaco on Saturday evening.
  • New signing Jota will return to the squad after struggling with a muscle injury and fitness issues in recent weeks.
  • Lorenz Assignon is suspended for Rennes.
  • Hans Hateboer will slot in at right-wing back.

Prediction

  • The Breton derby returns! If it is anything like the last outing (a 4-5 victory for Brest at Roahzon Park), it should be a feisty and entertaining affair at Stade Francis Le Blé.
  • Les Ti'Zefs have won three out of their five games in Ligue 1, whilst Rennes are looking to bounce back from two defeats in a row.
  • Brest have proved to be a more solid unit in recent times, and after a week of rest during the international break will be relieved of any previous Champions League fatigue.
