The Matchday 9 clash in Ligue 1 between Brest and PSG will take place on October 25 at the Stade Francis-Le Blé. Brest vs. PSG: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Brest
Eric Roy's side is unbeaten in the league for four games. In this run, the club secured victories against Nice (4-1) and Angers (2-0), followed by draws with Nantes (0-0) and Lorient (3-3). This successful stretch has lifted the team to 12th place, although the gap from the relegation zone remains small – just 3 points. It's worth noting that Brest's matches average 3.5 goals, the third-highest in Ligue 1.
- The club has only won 2 of their last 9 league games (3 draws and 4 losses).
- At home, Brest is unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 Ligue 1 matches (3 wins and 2 draws).
- The team has not lost in the first half of their last 6 home games (4 wins and 2 draws).
Predicted lineup for Brest (4-5-1)
Radoslaw Majecki – Bradley Locko, Brendan Chardonnet, Soumaila Coulibaly, Kenny Lala – Joris Chotard, Kamory Doumbia, Hugo Magnetti, Eric Dina Ebimbe, Romain Del Castillo – Ludovic Ajorque.
PSG
The Parisians have failed to win in their last two league matches. The team drew away at Lille (1-1) and also shared the points at home with Strasbourg (3-3). Additionally, in their last four Ligue 1 games, the capital side managed to defeat only Auxerre (2-0). Due to these results, Luis Enrique's side is currently second, trailing Marseille by one point.
- The club has won 7 of their last 10 league games (2 draws and 1 loss).
- No more than two goals have been scored in 6 of PSG's last 8 Ligue 1 matches.
- Both teams scored in 8 of PSG's last 10 away league matches.
Predicted lineup for PSG (4-1-2-3)
Lucas Chevalier – Illya Zabarnyi, Lucas Beraldo, Lucas Hernandez, Senny Meyulu – Warren Zaire-Emery – Lee Kang-In, Desire Doue – Bradley Barcola, Ibrahima Mbaye, Gonçalo Ramos.
Midfielders Fabian Ruiz and Joao Neves are still recovering from injuries.

Brest vs. PSG: Match Prediction
On Tuesday, the Parisians played their third Champions League match against Bayer and demonstrated their current form. The team from Leverkusen was thrashed 7-2 at their own stadium. Luis Enrique's side showed that losing the top spot in Ligue 1 has not affected them. I predict not only a victory for the capital team in the upcoming match but also a high-scoring affair.
Brest not only concedes a lot but also scores almost 2 goals per match on average in the league. It seems likely they will manage to score against PSG as well, given that the Parisians have been conceding in almost every game recently, partly due to the absence of Donnarumma. It's also worth highlighting the head-to-head stats. PSG has dominated, winning 14 of the last 15 Ligue 1 encounters (with one draw). At least three goals and both teams scoring have occurred in the last 5 meetings between these sides.
My prediction – PSG to win and both teams to score – yes
