Brest - Olympique Lyonnais betting tips and odds

Predicting which side will win this match based on odds alone is a complete toss-up. We would say the hosts have a bit of an advantage, but their success is by no means assured.

While Olympique Lyonnais may manage to claw their way to a win yet, it will be quite a struggle. As we can see thanks to the 2.70 betting odds for an away win, the odds are stacked against them – though it’s still manageable.

Brest’s latest Ligue 1 outing was quite the spectacle. They went into the game against Reims as clear underdogs playing as visitors, and the first half went predictably bad for them. However, they caused a major upturn in the second half, resulting in a 1:2 triumph.

Olympique Lyonnais failed to snag a decisive victory in the previous round’s home game against Le Havre despite the favourable betting odds and home-field advantage. Records show that the two teams were largely neck-to-neck throughout the showdown, which ended in a rather disappointing 0:0.

The home team are hoping to keep up the string of successes that landed them just 1 point below the league’s best-placed team. It’s only round 6, though, so staying there will be a real challenge.

Few can call these first 6 matches a success for Olympique Lyonnais, but the season is just beginning. They’ll need to push back hard even with difficult matches like this one – there are just 2_BEHIND_EUROPA_LEAGUE points between them and the relegation zone.

Although a home win is priced at 2.50, you should consider the previous season’s record before placing any bets. Olympique Lyonnais won a match last year with a considerable goal difference, so the situation is not as clear-cut as it might seem.

This Saturday, both teams will be at full strength and able to give it their all.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.65 odds offered at Betsson.
