Saturday's limited Ligue 1 schedule offers us three clashes of huge importance both for the title race and for the top six as a whole.
Rennes will try to continue their winning streak against a faltering Toulouse, while Monaco will try to catch up with them with a win against Angers. In the late fixture, PSG will be looking to maintain their lead at the top of the table.
Below you will find our expert tips and predictions for the three Ligue 1 games on Saturday.
Today’s Ligue 1 betting tips & predictions
Rennes vs. Toulouse (4pm)
Toulouse slowed down after their phenomenal run between December and February, failing to win any of their last three matches.
Rennes seem to have finally found the winning formula, achieving consecutive victories for the first time since January. Both victories were by 3+ goals, with the latter being a crushing defeat of PSG at home.
We are definitely in for a close match, but we expect Rennes to take the three points, given the visitors' poor form and their consecutive failures against teams at the bottom of the table.

Monaco vs. Angers (6pm)
Monaco were knocked out of the Champions League, ending their chances of winning a trophy this season, and now their only task is to return to Europe.
Angers are perhaps the ideal opponent at this moment, coming off two consecutive losses. Monaco's defensive form is far from optimal, but they are definitely scoring a lot more goals than before. They have scored 2+ in each of their last four games.
However, we must not forget that Angers have a fairly stable defence, so we do not recommend looking for goals.

Le Havre vs PSG (8:05pm)
The champions secured their place among the last 16 of the UCL and will face Chelsea in the next round. But before that, they must do everything possible to stay at the top in Ligue 1, and Le Havre will not be as easy an opponent as they might seem.
Le Havre's recent games at Stade Oceane have shown a different side to the team, with their last league defeat at home coming back in November. This streak includes three wins in their last four.
It won't be easy for the tired PSG, so we expect a little more action and will risk betting on goals for both sides.
