Brest vs Lyon Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 28th December 2022

Lyon visit Stade Francis le Ble this coming Wednesday for a Ligue 1 fixture with home side Brest. The last time the pair played each other, Brest came out the other side as 2-1 winners and surely won't mind a repeat of that result.

With 21 points after 15 games, Lyon currently rank 8th in the Ligue 1 standings. Brest play catch-up as they recorded 13 points in 15 matches, putting them up as 16th before their upcoming clash.

The season has so far failed to deliver anything near what Lyon initially had their sights on. They will be hoping their upcoming clash against Brest can ignite an upward trend.

Brest are not a high scoring team these days, as they only found the back of the net nine times in the last ten outings. That is an average of just 0.9 goals per game, as they conceded 13 goals. They managed one clean sheets in these matches.

Lyon average 0.9 goals a game in their last ten outing, scoring a total of nine goals. They conceded an average of 1.4 per game, for a total of 14 goals, whilst keeping their opponents from scoring one times.

Brest vs Lyon Prediction

Brest Form

Brest hope for some consistency, as their last three matches added four points to their account. A meeting with Reims resulted in a 0-0 draw, followed by a 1-0 defeat against Nice, before beating Troyes by 2-1. In their last six Ligue 1 matches at home, Brest have one win, while they've drawn two and lost three.

Hoping for a campaign without too much hazzle, recent performances suggests Brest could be dragged into a relegation-battle.

Lyon Form

Lyon added four points to their account in their previous three matches, starting off beating Lille 1-0. A 1-0 defeat against Marseille followed, before sharing the points with Nice in a 1-1 draw. In their last six Ligue 1 away matches, Lyon failed to win more than once. In stead, they've drawn zero and lost five, scoring six while also conceding 11 times.

Lyon had their target set on a podium finish as well as qualifying for Europe, and both are still within reach in the Ligue 1.

It seems both Lyon and Brest have some issues concerning their defence, as they seem to find themselves on the receiving end a bit too often lately. We believe the trend continues on Wednesday, and we are rooting for goals.

Lyon recorded three wins from their last three games against teams placed in the bottom six and collected nine points. They scored nine goals while conceding two. Brest enjoy a record of three wins, four draws and eight defeats in the Ligue 1 this season. Lyon show off six wins, three draws and six defeats in the Ligue 1.
