Brest vs Lorient Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 9th October 2022
After surviving a gruelling battle for survival last season, Lorient continue their latest Ligue 1 campaign this coming Sunday. The away side play Brest at Stade Francis le Ble in a round 10 fixture. Brest were defeated by 0-1 in their last encounter with Lorient, but did win the reverse match 2-1, though.
While Lorient are now third in the Ligue 1 table after collecting 22 points in nine rounds, Brest trail them on six points. This leaves them as number 18 in the table after nine rounds played.
Lorient will not be short on motivation for their clash with the match favourites Brest. Although the odds are against them, a narrow win on Sunday will see them move ahead of their upcoming opponents in the table.
Brest scored 11 goals, conceded 23 and fought their way to zero clean sheets in their previous ten matches.
Lorient scored 20 goals, conceded 14 and held on for a clean sheet in two of their last ten matches.
Brest vs Lorient Prediction
A single point is all Brest have to show from their last three games, where they came up short, losing 1-0 and 0-1 against PSG and AC Ajaccio respectively. Their latest match brought some consolation with a 1-1 against Auxerre. Brest didn't manage a single win in any of their previous six Ligue 1 games at the Stade Francis le Ble. They have a record of two draws and four defeats, in which they conceded 15 and scored four goals.
Lorient look fabulous with three wins on the trot, starting off against Nantes, who were defeated by 3-2. Then, Auxerre got outclassed in a 1-3 won, before beating Lille by 2-1. Lorient won three of a possible six away matches in the Ligue 1, as well as playing two draws and suffering one defeat. They scored nine while also conceding eight times.
Brest might be favourites, but their current form doesn't cut it for us, at least not compared with the prices on offer at the bookmakers. We would rather take a shot at Lorient to nick a point or perhaps even a win.
Lorient won two of their previous two outings against teams from the bottom six and claimed six points. They scored four and conceded two goals.
