As it stands, Stade Rennais are still in the hunt for their first away win of the season. They have lost three consecutive matches on the road, conceding eight times in the process. Julien Stephan will have his work cut out for him as his troops square off against an in-form Paris Saint-Germain on the road.

Player to watch: Steve Mandanda
Steve Mandanda kept four clean sheets in Rennes' last five home games, conceding just once. However, the former Marseille shot-stopper has struggled on the road, conceding five times in two away games this season. Mandanda will have his work cut out for him as Rennes go toe-to-toe with the highest-scoring team in the French top flight. It will be interesting to see how he fares against a free scoring PSG side.
