Brest vs Auxerre Prediction
Both sides are desperate to get some points on the board, and they’ve also been in similar form in recent weeks. However, with the sides below them struggling for traction, a draw could suit both teams.
If one team is likely to win, it’s probably Brest. Their defence should be strong enough to withstand Auxerre’s relatively weak attack, but the hosts aren’t exactly a free-scoring side in their own right. Overall, expect the honours to be even in this game.
Prediction: Brest 1-1 Auxerre
Brest vs Auxerre Head-To-Head
- Brest’s recent record against Auxerre is relatively good. The two sides drew 1-1 earlier this season, but Auxerre’s last win over Brest came in February 2017.
- Before last weekend’s defeat to Lorient, Brest had put together a sequence of six unbeaten games, allowing them to climb out of the relegation zone.
- Despite their struggles, Auxerre have lost just once in six games, falling to Marseille on April 30. In their last six games, they’ve collected a solid 11 points.
- Auxerre (32 goals) are among Ligue 1’s lowest-scoring sides. Only Ajaccio and relegated Angers have scored fewer. Unsurprisingly, only two of their players – M’Baye Niang and Nuno da Costa – have scored more than three goals.
- Despite their struggles, Brest’s defence hasn’t been too shoddy this season. Among the bottom 12 sides in Ligue 1, they have let in the joint-fewest goals, with a total of 50.
