Brest

DDWLWL ⚖

Since being beaten in their last game against Montpellier in Ligue 1 competition, Brest and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

In that match, Brest managed 68% possession and 19 attempts at goal with 6 on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Brest was Jonas Martin (50'). At the other end, Montpellier got 14 attempts on goal with 8 on target. Arnaud Nordin (6'), Wahbi Khazri (12') and Tanguy Coulibaly (84') scored for Montpellier.

The numbers tell their own story, and Brest have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 matches, seeing opposing sides hit 8 goals in all. Defensively, Brest just haven’t been too solid at all.

Ahead of this meeting, Brest are winless against Monaco when they've played them away from home in the last 5 matches in the league. They really have not been travelling well at all.

ℹ️ Team News: Monaco

Denis Zakaria (Adductor injury), Folarin Balogun (Shoulder injury) and Edan Diop (Foot injury) will not be taking part for Monaco gaffer Adi Hütter.

We think that Les Rouge et Blanc will possibly opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation, utilising Radoslaw Majecki, Vanderson, Wilfried Singo, Thilo Kehrer, Caio Henrique, Eliot Matazo, Soungoutou Magassa, Maghnes Akliouche, Takumi Minamino, Eliesse Ben Seghir and Breel Embolo.

ℹ️ Team News: Brest

Brest manager Éric Roy has multiple availability issues to deal with. Abdallah Sima (Muscle injury) and Bradley Locko (Achilles tendon rupture) can’t be considered.

From our viewpoint, Les Ty' Zefs will likely elect for a 4-3-3 lineup, settling for Marco Bizot, Kenny Lala, Brendan Chardonnet, Julien Le Cardinal, Jordan Amavi, Mahdi Camara, Pierre Lees-Melou, Hugo Magnetti, Romain Del Castillo, Ludovic Ajorque and Ibrahim Salah.

✨ Prediction

We’re of the opinion that Monaco look likely to fashion enough chances to find the net more than once while possibly not conceding when they line up against Brest, who will be up against it to score themselves.

Accordingly, we see a fairly comfortable 2-0 victory for Monaco after 90 minutes.
