Strasbourg - Brest betting tips and odds

Though we can call Strasbourg the favourites in this matchup, Brest are not about to make it easy for them. It’s gearing up to be an exciting match overall, and no outcome can be ruled out at this point.

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

Had Strasbourg been able to hold on to the first-half lead in their last Ligue 1 clash, they would be heading into the Sunday fixture in an even better mood. Not to say Clermont is a bad result in any way, though.

Brest lost their clash with Lille in the previous round, but their performance was fairly decent all things considered. They ended the first half with an unexpected lead but narrowly lost the match 2:1. Considering the 1.37 odds on a home win for Lille, things could have been much worse.

The home team’s tendency to see their defence crumble under the pressure of away games is worrying – they conceded more than 5 times over the previous 3 away games. The fact that they’re at Stade de la Meinau this Sunday makes things easier for them, but not by a lot.

Maintaining their defences has been a bit of a struggle for Brest lately. They ended up conceding 5 goals over the 3 most recent matches alone, leaving many fans disappointed.

Strasbourg have 22 points to their name as we head into the season’s late stage. They’re not on the road to relegation, but they’ll want to be careful nonetheless. This match on Sunday will be difficult for earning additional points.

The performances we saw from Brest up to this point were far from perfect, which got them just 1 point away from the relegation zone. They’re quickly running out of time to pursue a better outcome, too. Especially if you consider that they’re heading into a very unfavourable matchup in Stade de la Meinau.

At this point, the clash between these two teams is notorious for producing inconclusive results. They already have several tied matches on record in this season alone, which is ultimately worse for the home team who are considered favourites.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

Our tip for this match is not for those who avoid risky options – A Half Time/Full Time bet. Specifically, you should pick a Draw/Draw result at odds of 1. Bear in mind, though, that this is a fairly risky approach that prioritises betting value over the probability of success.
