THE PREDICTION
Montpellier contest their first match of the 2020-21 campaign and their preparations have hardly been ideal as recent weeks have seen them have to cancel some friendlies due to coronavirus-related issues and they travel to a Rennes side her who are already up and running after playing out a 1-1 draw with Lille last Saturday. The hosts enjoyed an excellent 2019-20 campaign in which they did the double over Montpellier – most notably a 5-0 mauling in this very stadium back in March – so they are favoured to win this match fairly comfortably.
