Rennes predicted XI v Monaco: Mikayil Faye set to start

Stade Rennais host high-flying Ligue 1 side AS Monaco this Saturday evening at the Roazhon Park. On Friday, the Brittany outfit announced a major change in personnel with the dismissal of club president Olivier Cloarec and the following appointment of former Lens CEO Arnaud Pouille at his expense. On the pitch too, those are troubling times for Stade Rennais. Les Rouge et Noir are tenth in the standings, despite an ambitious summer transfer window.

Several summer recruits are expected to get the nod from Julien Stéphan to start against the Monégasques. Former FC Barcelona defender Mikayil Faye is in line for his first Ligue 1 start as the left-sided centre-back in a three-man defense. Former Leeds United midfielder Glen Kamara is expected to start in a double midfield pivot alongside Azor Matusiwa. Marquee signing Jota is not set to start with Rennes carefully monitoring his return to full-match fitness.
