Brest vs Saint-Etienne Prediction & Match Preview

Brest vs Saint-Etienne: French Ligue 1
Date: Sunday, 16th February 2020, Kick off at 16:00 UK/ 17:00 CET
Venue: Stade Francis-Le Ble (Brest).

Brest are in 13th place and six points above the bottom three and they come into this match having drawn their last two in a row. Last weekend was impressive getting a 0-0 draw away to Rennes who are in 3rd place. One suspects that the club will be happy they are playing back at home where they have become a difficult team to beat.

At home the club have lost just one game all season and this is a great record where they have been able to earn 21 points from a possible 36.

Saint Etienne are two points behind Brest so this should make for an interesting game. But they come into this match in poor form having lost their last 3 games in a row. The club are yet to draw away from home and they have lost 5 games in a row on the road. Their last loss away from home came against Montpellier by 1-0.

Brest vs Saint-Etienne Prediction

We are backing Brest to get the win and move on. They are so good at home and we should also be reminded that a few weeks ago they put Strasbourg to the sword winning 5-0 here. They have also just conceded 8 goals at home and look like a different team.

Saint Etienne will have their chances and we could well see both teams score but this will be a very hard game for the away side who would have to be at their best to get anything here and they are in really poor form.
