St Etienne vs. Brest (Saturday, 12.00pm)
Saint-Etienne and Brest will both be out to break the all-important 40-point mark in Ligue 1 when they lock horns at the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard on Saturday lunchtime.
The hosts suffered a cruel 3-2 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain last time out, while Brest's encounter with European hopefuls Lens ended in a 1-1 stalemate.
We say: Saint-Etienne 3-1 Brest
A spate of injuries and suspensions has seriously hampered Brest's aspirations of ending their torrid winless run away from home this weekend, and their attacking forces have lost their golden touch in recent weeks.
Saint-Etienne were highly unfortunate not to come away from their clash with PSG with any points to show for it, but we expect them to prolong Dall'Oglio's misery with a dominant win on their own turf.

Metz vs. PSG (Saturday, 4.00pm)
Paris Saint-Germain will endeavour to leapfrog Lille at the top of the Ligue 1 rankings when they travel to the Stade Saint-Symphorien to take on a misfiring Metz outfit on Saturday afternoon.
Les Grenats played out a goalless draw with Reims in their most recent fixture, while PSG boosted their title chances with a dramatic 3-2 win over Saint-Etienne.
We say: Metz 0-3 Paris Saint-Germain
News of Niane's imminent return is music to the ears of Metz fans, but that surge of optimism is likely to be extinguished as a rampant PSG eye top spot in the table.
Les Parisiens may be slightly preoccupied with the thought of their impending Champions League semi-final, but Pochettino's side are simply unstoppable on the road and we cannot see any other result than a dominant win for PSG on their way to the summit.
