Game of the week: Stade Rennais v Lille OSC, Sunday 19:45 (UK)

It has been an excellent start to life at Stade Rennais for Franck Haise, who has not only won his first three games in charge, but has also done so by keeping a clean sheet in each game. His side netted four against OGC Nice last weekend. In fifth, Esteban Lepaul, in hot goal-scoring form, said that the Breton club can aim for the Champions League places. Why not? They arguably have a better chance than Lille OSC, whose attacking problems are serious. Hamza Igamane’s injury has not helped matters, but there is still plenty of quality and goalscoring should not be as big a problem it is, given the personnel.
