Saturday's early Ligue 1 kickoff sees Brest and Rennes lock horns at the Stade Francis-Le Ble, with a solitary point separating the Brittany rivals after three matches.
The hosts suffered their first defeat of the season as they lost 2-0 against Marseille last weekend, while the visitors were held to a 2-2 draw by newly-promoted Le Havre.
We say: Brest 1-2 Rennes
Given that Brest have made a strong start to the season, we expect the Pirates to give Rennes a run for their money, but the visitors should have enough quality to claim all three points on Saturday.

Perched atop the Ligue 1 table after three games, Monaco will aim to extend their unbeaten start to the season when they welcome winless Lens to the Stade Louis-II on Saturday.
Following a 3-3 draw with Nantes, the Monegasques have taken seven points from a possible nine this term, while last season's runners-up have a solitary point to their name.
We say: Monaco 2-1 Lens
Lens are expected to push Monaco all the way as they bid to end their winless run, but the Monegasques look set to extend their unbeaten start to the season with another victory on home soil.
