High-flying Rennes will be aiming to extend their winning run to six games in all competitions when they take on Montpellier on Matchday 20. Les Rouges et Noirs have been scoring goals for fun of late and we are positive that they will adopt yet another attack-minded approach against La Paillade. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Martin Terrier, who has found his goal-scoring touch, while Nemanja Matic is no longer part of the team after signing a deal with Olympique Lyon.

Montpellier, on the other hand, played out a boring goalless draw with Lille at the weekend. Michel Der Zakarian’s troops have suffered four defeats in the previous five away games and given Rennes’ fine form in January, home win should be considered. All Enzo Tchato, Dimitry Bertaud, Issiaga Sylla, Mousa Al Tamari, Falaye Sacko, and Boubakar Kouyate are on international duty, speaking of the visiting team.
