Troyes form and stats
Troyes's struggle is real here at Stade de l'Aube with only 9 points collected from 9 Ligue 1 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-3-4.
The spoils were shared in Troyes's previous game, also at home. Visiting Nancy (after extra-time, 2-4 on penalties) travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline. The gifted forward Roberts bettered all teammates in that match and got a match rating of 7.4 out of 10. Roberts hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 3 of 3 times and had 19 successful passes (of 23 total).
Preceding that match was a Ligue 1 defeat to Bordeaux (1-2).The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Troyes have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found eight matches with the results: Won five, drawn one and lost two.
Troyes has scored 10 league goals at home this season, in 9 matches. 11 goals have been conceded.
Brest form and stats

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Dinan Lehon (after extra-time, 12-13 on penalties) in their previous outing. The Coupe de France match ended in a draw 0-0.
A loss against Montpellier was the result prior to that, in a Ligue 1 home game.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest.
