Brest - Lens betting tips and odds

Brest are no strangers to surprises but with 4.50 on home win here, such a result would be more of a miracle rather than surprise.

Though it won’t be the easiest match of their careers, Lens should be able to pull ahead for a victory. Most online bookmakers are pricing an away win at 1.83, which gives us confidence it’s the most likely outcome.

Brest will head into the Sunday clash on a big wave of confidence following their Olympique Lyonnais away draw. They return home after keeping it level both at the halftime mark and after the final whistle despite being made overwhelming underdogs in their last game.

The visiting side will have nothing to be happy about when it comes to their last Ligue 1 match. They welcomed Nice in what was supposed to be a straightforward home victory for Lens. However, things did not go as expected since Lens ended up suffering a narrow 0:1.

The home-pitch advantage appears to be quite important for Brest. Their last 3 fixtures at home were crowned by more than 5 goals in total.

The away team are on a worrying trend of uneventful matches. Their previous two games at home both confirmed the Under 5 Goals market. They’re not likely to play more aggressively when they’re away either.

The Ligue 1 season is going rather well for Lens. They are sitting in 3rd place but Champions League football is not what they are willing to settle for at this point. With a lot of game still waiting ahead, they want to have a pop at the title and getting past Brest is definitely the first step.

The bookies see the away team as more likely to win this game, partly based on an earlier match played between them and Brest. Playing as the home tea, Lens secured a solid victory and 3 more points for the tally. The conditions are somewhat less favourable this time, but they could still be able to come out on top.

The absence of injuries or suspensions means both teams will have their full lineups at their disposal for a thrilling matchup.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.92. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
