Brest - Olympique Marseille betting tips and odds

Brest are no strangers to surprises but with 3.55 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, Olympique Marseille should be able to pull ahead for a victory. Most online bookmakers are pricing an away win at 2.15, which gives us confidence it’s the most likely outcome.

The hosts are coming off from a Lens victory in the last round. It was a difficult league match for them but they still managed to beat the odds (5.50) and record a slim win that is of great importance in their Ligue 1 run.

Olympique Marseille are coming off of a disappointing 0:1 loss in the previous round. The first half of that match was one long stalemate, but their opponents Monaco broke the tie later on.

Brest leave quite the impression whenever we see them play in front of their fans at Stade Francis-Le Blé. They scored more than 5 goals in total the last 3 times they did so, which is a solidly impressive record.

As one of the best-placed teams in the league, Olympique Marseille are defending a Champions League qualifying spot. They’re also still in contention for the title itself – there are still a few matches to be played before it’s decided. Despite the successful campaign, though, winning points in this game is going to take some work.

The away team this Sunday is largely seen as the stronger team, though the recent head-to-head score paints a different picture. They already clashed with Brest this season and lost.

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 2.01.
