Brest also had disappointing last season but now they are the leaders of the Ligue 2 with 10 points and 8-3 goal difference after four matches played. That loss to Sochaux was their first defeat of the season and upcoming match gives the visiting side an opportunity to revenge it.
Starting matches of the season showed that the teams are ready to battle for promotion this time and they would try to take their points mainly with solid football in defense. The teams faced one another last week and didn’t create many chances to score goals and we should expect to see the same from them in upcoming clash.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals.
