Reims vs Brest Prediction

Reims Form

Reims have been a little inconsistent recently, as they beat Monaco by 0-1. Following that up proved too difficult, as they lost 1-2 against Marseille, before claiming three points in a 0-3 win against Nantes. Reims claimed four wins in their last six Ligue 1 matches at the Stade Auguste Delaune. They came through these games with a record of one draw and one defeat, in which they conceded four and scored 13 goals.

Brest Form

In their past three matches, Brest lost 1-2 against PSG, drew 2-2 with Troyes and won 3-1 against Toulouse. Brest only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the Ligue 1. In these six matches they drew three and lost two as well as being outscored by eight goals to five.

Reims look in strong shape, while Brest don't look quite as convincing, which makes betting on the home win a no-brainer in this match.

Reims took 29 points from their last 15 encounters with teams from the bottom half of the Ligue 1 table. This amounts to eight wins after scoring 25 times and conceding 12. Brest claimed zero wins and five points from their last 15 encounters with teams in the top half of the Ligue 1, while scoring 11 goals to 23 against. Reims are looking at a record of 11 wins, 13 draws and five defeats in the Ligue 1 this season. Brest have six wins, nine draws and 14 defeats in the Ligue 1.
