Strasbourg will continue to search for their first victory of the season this Saturday when they make the trip to play Auxerre in the fourth round of Ligue 1 games.

The hosts have had a mixture of results across the opening three matches with two draws, and defeat to their name so far.

We say: Auxerre 2-1 Strasbourg

Goals have been frequent for Auxerre so far this season, with the team proving themselves to be entertaining to watch with their attacking qualities working well.

On the other hand, the visitors have been working hard to get their first three points of the season, but this match might be a difficult one for them to achieve that target.

Two teams who have had strong starts to their respective Ligue 1 campaigns will meet on Saturday as Lens competes against Rennes.

The hosts are currently second in the table, just two points off the league leaders while the visitors are undefeated in their previous two games.

We say: Lens 3-1 Rennes

Rennes have been performing well in the opening three games, but Saturday is going to provide a difficult test for the squad against one of the strongest teams in the league so far.

Lens have been impressive with their attacking qualities while also showing defensive capabilities, and they will be the favourites here.
