Brest form and stats

Let's have a look at how Brest performed last season in the Ligue 1: They landed a 17th position in the league table after playing out 11 victories, 8 draws and 19 defeats. In total they scored 50 and conceded 66 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 3 - drew 4 and lost 12 with 18/33 goals scored/conceded.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Brest played away with similar odds. This revealed two games. The visitors overcame the odds to win zero times, zero were draws and the home team won as expected two times.

It's a day of discovery for Brest as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Brest have played six with the results W1-D1-L4 (win-draw-lost). In these games Brest has scored 11 goals and conceded 14 times.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Olympique, six draws and zero wins for Brest. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: six games.
