Brest vs Lille Prediction, Betting Tips & Prediction

Brest v Lille
France – Ligue 1
Date: Saturday, March 14, 2024
Starts at 19pm UK / 00pm CET
Location: Stade Francis- Le Ble (Brest)

Brest are better at home and that has been evident several times this season. That said, they lost their last game at home 1-0 to Angers, but it was only their second of the season and it could very well be the clubs' home form that keeps them going this season.

Brest are in 14th place and seven points clear of the drop and now the club would need a major collapse to fall. It is suspected that they begin to enjoy football now that they seem to be safe. The recent form is not good, with consecutive defeats and the team only won one victory in the last five games.

Lille continue to chase Rennes for third place and continue to win, being one of the best fit teams in the league. They have won their last 3 consecutive games, two of them at home, but the club did well by beating Lyon last weekend. They are just 1 point behind Rennes, they are also 8 points off fifth place going into this weekend, but that could change very quickly.

Brest vs Lille: head to head

Lille have won the last 3 meetings between the teams.

The last time the clubs played in Brest was in 2013, when Lille won 2-1.

The clubs have faced each other seven times in recent times and Brest had only one victory.

Brest vs Lille: Prediction

Our thinking is that Brest can relax and try to play football, while Lille need to try to win and will be much more motivated to do so.

Football comes down to hunger and the will to win games and we just don't feel like we'll see that 100% with the home team, Lille need that because it could be the difference to play in the Champions League next season.

Lille have only won 4 away games this season, but the important thing is that they have won the last 3 games in a row.

We picked Loic Remy last weekend to score and he did and we think the striker will be ready for this game too.

Brest vs Lille betting tips:
