Lens - Brest betting tips and odds

Lens are firm favourites in this matchup, and backing them may offer surprising betting value. It’s a very safe bet, though we suppose an upset is not outside the realm of possibility. We wouldn’t count on Brest winning, though.

With a price of 5.00 on an away win among most online sportsbooks, it’s clear Brest will likely not fare well against Lens. Even a draw seems to be too optimistic for the away team.

The deciding goal in Lens’s recent victory at Angers SCO came after a protracted stalemate, but it still secured the victory. The 1:2 outcome was quite predictable if Ligue 1 betting odds are to be believed – the bookies saw an away win as the most likely outcome, though not overwhelmingly so.

Brest fans are rather disappointed with their latest outing at home. An uneventful deadlock in the first half was followed by an unexpected tiebreaker from Lorient, the visitors, resulting in a narrow home defeat.

We’ve seen an admirable level of consistency from Lens and their goalscorers. With 5 goals spread over the last 3 matches, we can safely expect this match not to end with a nill on the scoreboard.

This match might present a rare opportunity to go for an Over 4.5 Goals bet. Brest have netted 6 goals in each of their previous 3 games – which is quite a track record.

The hosts have 3 points separating them from European football, and the time to get there is quickly running out. This game is a great chance to work towards that goal, but all the teams are highly motivated at this point in the season.

Surprisingly enough, the hosts already lost to Brest once this season. This came as a bit of an upset, to say the least, considering they are widely believed to be the stronger team.

And Under 2.5 Goals is the perfect wager for this fixture. A quick glance at these teams’ statistics will tell you all you need to know about their concession rates, which is why it’s a fairly safe bet, generally priced at around 2.10.
