Brest have struggled for points this league season. Will the team get a victory when Monaco stop by Stade Francis-Le Ble?

Insights:
  • Monaco have the most scored goals in the first half (26) in Ligue 1

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1400 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

Monaco could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Europa League game only three sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Bayer Leverkusen. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Brest form and stats

Brest's struggle is real here at Stade Francis-Le Ble with only 11 points collected from 11 Ligue 1 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-5-4.

Midfielder Melou was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.05 (out of ten) in that game. Melou had 49 successful passes (of 58 total).

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Lens.
