Ligue 1, Stade rennais - Monaco, Saturday, 19:00 CET. Three days after a profitable trip to Marseille, Antonetti’s players host Guy Lacombe’s AS Monaco. This game will be marked with the return of Kader Mangane after several weeks of absence.

Injured to the thigh after the 13th game week game against Auxerre, Kader Mangane has missed the last three games, including both derbies against Brest and Lorient. The Stade Rennes centre-back is “fit to return in the squad”, according to the club’s latest report, which doesn’t state whether the Senegalese will be ready to play against his former coach. If this was to be the case, he should be taking back the captain armband, after a convincing interim by Romain Danzé during his absence.

Kévin Théophile-Catherine, victim of a buttock injury during the week, is out again. Samuel Souprayen should therefore be returning at left back this Saturday. The rest of the squad remains the same.
