Stade Rennes is a high-scoring team so I understand why people are expecting goals, but I don't see a shootout while this Monaco side tries to fix their poor form. Manager Sebastien Pocognoli has them playing a bit more of a defensive playstyle in recent weeks. They're coming off of back-to-back nil-nil matches against Le Havre and Juventus. This game could go off the rails if we get an early goal, but I see Monaco slowing things down, especially after UCL play.
Monaco earlier this week played Juventus to a grueling nil-nil draw at home in Champions League play. They missed mulitple chances for goals, and looked exhausted throughout the majority of the game. This continues Monaco's poor form. They have not won a Ligue 1 match since November of last year, and their home form has been very shaky. I think Rennes win this outright and have no problem playing the spread.
