Brest - Nantes predictions

Brest should not have bigger problems running away with three points in this match if they stick to their game plan. However, Nantes can be a tough nut to crack and the home side need to be on top of their game.

It’s highly unlikely that Nantes will manage to get some points this round. Brest are at a considerable advantage, so even a draw would be a success for the visitors.

There is no denying that Brest put on quite a show in their previous Ligue 1 outing. They were given the odds of 2.53 to claim an away win against a strong side and they fully delivered. The Sunday hosts were level at halftime and ended up claiming a rather surprisingly convincing Angers SCO in the end.

Brest tend to concede quite a lot when playing at home, strangely enough. For example, the ball ended up in their net more than 5 times over the course of their latest 3 home games.

The hosts are in a solid position as number 9th in the standings, but more is expected of them. Another 3 points here will do great in getting them closer to the top, which seems like a likely outcome.

The visitors are coming into this game as hard underdogs, so their shot at earning some points is not looking great. However, they’ll be highly motivated to do so if they want to get out of the relegation zone. The bright side is that they’re still fairly early in the season.

If the previous season is anything to go by, Brest are the clearly dominant side of this matchup. They have multiple decisive victories on record from the previous season alone, which, which easily justifies the 1.93 betting odds for a home win.

Sunday's matchup will feature both teams at full strength, allowing for a fair and competitive game.

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 1.96.
