Nantes currently sits ninth in the Ligue 1 standings and won’t be able to move up any, as the team is four points back of Lyon.
The team did get a nice consolation prize though, as it defeated Nice earlier in this month to win the French Cup final.
In Ligue 1 play, Nantes is coming off of a 3-2 loss to Lyon, with Quentin Merlin and Wylan Cyprien scoring late goals to get the team on the board and avoid the shutout.
Predicted Nantes starting XI: Appiah, Girotto, Castelletto, Fábio, Merlin, Cyprien, Blas, Coco, Simon, Kolo Muani; Lafont
| Position | Saint-Etienne roster |

| Goalkeepers | Fall, Green, Bernardoni |

Saint-Étienne is tied with Metz at 31 points each for 18th and 19th in the standings, with Metz getting the advantage by goal differential. That 18th spot is crucial, as it gives the team a fighting chance to avoid relegation, whereas the 19th spot leads to automatic relegation.
But Saint-Étienne’s chances of avoiding direct relegation rely on this team finding a way to get points, something it hasn’t done in its last four matches.
The team is coming off of a 2-1 loss to Reims, with Eliaquim Mangala scoring the team’s lone goal in the defeat.
Predicted Saint-Etienne starting XI: Sow, Mangala, Nade, Macon, Camara, Gourna-Douath, Trauco, Boudebouz, Bounanga, Khazri; Bernardoni.
