St Etienne - Rennes  Prediction, Picks and Taips  


 
 

The match between AS Saint-Étienne and Stade Rennais on Saturday can safely be called a top match, because both teams surprisingly lead the ranking with ten points after four rounds of play. In preparation for the current season, Stade Rennais still won 3-0 in-house against the record champion of France, but can we also expect a comfortable victory for the number three of the previous season on Saturday?




 
 


 
 

With three victories in the first three games, AS Saint-Étienne had a two point lead over Stade Rennais until last weekend, but that has changed with the first loss of points by les Verts this season. On a visit to Nantes, Claude Puel's team had a 2-0 lead after more than an hour of play by hits from Adil Aouchiche and Yvann Macon, but in the final phase the lead was given away and the record champion of France had to equalize with a 2-2 draw.



Defender Wesley Fofana seems to be making a transfer to Leicester City all summer, but for the time being it has not yet come from a transfer for the 19-year-old Frenchman. The youngster even started the first three games in the base, but against Nantes, Fofana was left out of the selection. A transfer seems finally in the making and that would be a big loss for les Verts, because his intended replacement within the selection of AS Saint-Étienne, Harold Moukoudi, is of a lot less quality and has a lot less experience at the highest level. .



 
 
 
 

 

In-house, Stade Rennais, the number three of last season and this season as yet shared leader, booked the third victory of the season. After a bad first half, in which the team of Stéphane Moulin rightly fell behind, les Rouges et Noirs were lord and master in their own stadium in the second half. Nevertheless, it took until the final phase before the Moulin team managed to equalize and eventually the third victory in a row was booked by a hit in injury time.



When it comes to talents at Stade Rennais, it is usually about Eduardo Camavinga, who will only turn eighteen at the beginning of next month. However, Camavinga was not the big eye-catcher against AS Monaco, but eighteen-year-old Adrien Truffert. The young defender was allowed to make his debut in the main force of les Rouges et Noirs due to an injury from Faitout Maouassa. Truffert did this with verve, because the youngster not only performed his defensive tasks, but also made an impression on the offensive. The defender gave the assist to Steven N'Zonzi 1-1 and made the winning 2-1 in injury time and Truffert had a dream debut.
