Antonetti has previously managed in Ligue 1 with four clubs, most recently Rennes until leaving his post in 2013. He also won the Ligue 2 title with St. Etienne in 2004 and has reached Coupe de la Ligue finals with Bastia, Nice and Rennes.
He takes over a side 17th in Ligue 1 with only two wins to their credit this season. Les Dogues drew 1-1 with Troyes on Saturday.
