Brest - Strasbourg betting tips and odds

Brest are expected to win here, but we can’t call such betting predictions completely foolproof. Strasbourg may surprise us yet, and even a tie game seems a decent possibility from where we’re standing.

An away win in this match would be a huge surprise and an equally big achievement for Strasbourg who could consider themselves fortunate if they run away with a point in the bag.

When it comes to Brest’s previous Ligue 1 clash, things went the wrong way from the off. They were never the favourites to claim an away win (4.40) but it’s fair to say their fans did not expect to see them lose Monaco. They fell behind in the first half and the game was already settled.

Strasbourg are here on the back of an undecided match against Clermont. The odds were in Strasbourg’s favour, though, and they were the hosts – which means that the draw result was a disappointment.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and Brest have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

Number 6th in the current standings, the hosts are trying to move up the table in these early stages of the season. They stand a good chance of getting closer to their goal this Sunday.

Thankfully, Strasbourg will be able to bring out their roster in full force, with no players forced to the sidelines due to injury or suspension. They’re still considered underdogs, mind you, but it’s something to consider.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.79. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
