Nantes will take their fight for survival to Roazhon Park, where they’ll be battling Rennes in their next match in Ligue 1. While Nantes seek to leave the bottom three, Rennes are trying to rise into the top three. Let’s have a look at the match prediction.

Rennes have turned on the style and are looking like a serious challengers for a top three slot. On the road in the last round, Rennes engineered a 3-0 thrashing of Strasbourg for a perfect warmup to this encounter.

That win had Les Rouge et Noir rise above Marseille and into fifth spot with 53 points.

Nantes had taken a few positive steps towards survival with three straight draws. However, as the tough run of fixtures would have it, they are set to face a top five side for the second week running.

In the first of them, they lost 3-0 to PSG. That heavy defeat left Les Canaris nine points away from safety, and now it looks like they can only target the playoff position.

They trail that by five points and come holding onto a seven-game winless run, having lost four in the process. Among their battles, Nantes will hope for a sharper attack, having failed to score in five of seven games. In this period, they managed just three goals.
