Paris Saint Germain massive favourites before trip to Brest

1-1 away at Olympique Lyonnais before that.

Paris Saint Germain form and stats

A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the Ligue 1, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 13 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats from 19 matches.

Julian Draxler, Kylian Mbappé, Mauro Icardi and Pablo Sarabia scored in Paris Saint Germain's previous match, the home game against Strasbourg that ended 4-2. Kylian Mbappé, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 8.45. Mbappé scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled passed the opponent 5 of 9 times. As you can tell from the result, the match against Strasbourg was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

Prior to that result Paris won their away game at Troyes. The scoreline was 2-1.

As mentioned earlier, Paris will not be satisfied unless they get a comfortable victory in this game. Performing as huge favourites away from home has earlier resulted in 14 wins (eleven by two or more goals winning margin), one draw and one surprising defeat.

2 goals so far away for Paris Saint Germain, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 1 league match away.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: zero - one - nine (Brest wins - draws - Paris Saint Germain wins). As for goals, seven matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three had two or less.
