Sports Mole provides score predictions for both of Saturday's Ligue 1 matches - Rennes vs. Montpellier and Strasbourg vs. Nice.

---

Rennes vs. Montpellier (Saturday, 4.00pm)

Rennes will look to secure their first three points of the new Ligue 1 season at the second attempt when they play host to Montpellier HSC at the Roazhon Park on Saturday.

Meanwhile, the fixture will be Montpellier's first outing of the season after their proposed opening-day clash with Champions League semi-finalists Lyon was postponed.

We say: Rennes 1-1 Montpellier HSC

Depending on any further action taken as a result of Rennes' coronavirus cases, Montpellier may be forced to wait even longer to take to the pitch. The players who tested positive for COVID-19 at Rennes are also unknown, and should the game be given the green light to go ahead, we are backing Montpellier to walk away with a point to show for their efforts.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Strasbourg vs. Nice (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Nice will be aiming to make it two wins from two to begin the new Ligue 1 campaign when they take on Strasbourg at the Stade de la Meinau on Saturday evening.

The Eagles beat Lens 2-1 in their opening fixture and are positioned third in the early standings, while Strasbourg went down 3-1 to Lorient in their first game back.

We say: Strasbourg 0-2 Nice

Nice kicked off their Ligue 1 campaign in a winning way and will be out to make it six points from six on Saturday. The visitors have scored in each of their last 11 league outings, and we expect that run to continue here in a fairly routine win.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a draw or an away win.
