BETDISTRICT PREDICTION: Saint Etienne at home is a threat to any team in France, but Valenciennes has improved a lot lately and might give the hosts a fight, just like they gave Marseille at Velodrome last round (1-2). Still, expect St. Etienne to eventually win this. Saint Etienne – Valenciennes 2-1.
