Brest form and stats
Brest have secured 6 points from their first three home games in the Ligue 1. A decent catch, still with room for improvement. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Stade Francis-Le Ble.
Brest are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-3 away versus Nantes. Ahead of that match, Brest won a home game hosting Monaco (1-0).
This is expected to be a close game, with Brest perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Brest as a small favourite), we find twelve games. Brest has won seven of these, drawn four and lost one.
Brest can score goals in their home matches. After 3 league matches they have found the net 6 times. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Brest defense is not exactly impregnable. 5 goals conceded from 3 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Strasbourg form and stats
It's not happening yet for Strasbourg on their Ligue 1 travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Strasbourg's last three away games as they have all been lost. Three has not been a lucky number for Strasbourg as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Dijon match.
Strasbourg failed to get anything from their last game, a Ligue 1 home match vs Olympique Lyonnais (placed 9th) that ended with defeat 2-3. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Monaco wasn't a success with a 2-3 loss.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eleven similar matches played by Strasbourg in our archives, and the results are: four wins for Strasbourg, three draws and four defeats.
Strasbourg have scored 3 goals on their travels this season, from 3 away games in the league. People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that Strasbourg concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own.
