Brest vs Nice Prediction & Betting Tips (4 February)

The guards of the leader PSG face each other, in a match that promises to be vibrant. Likewise, the two teams still dream, knowing that they are very much on track to qualify for the Champions League. Regarding Brest, the team won 4 of the last 5 games, after beating Montpellier 2-0, Lorient 4-0, Nantes 2-0 and Metz 1-0, while Nice comes from 2 victories consecutive, beating Metz 1-0 and Girondins 3-2, with a great collective performance. On the other hand, both teams have been very solid in defense, since they conceded very few goals in the competition, in the midst of a very encouraging reality.

Therefore, a very intense and busy match is expected, with many dangerous situations in the areas. Without a doubt, the goalkeepers will have to be attentive, so as not to suffer a difficult day.

On the Brest side, replacement left back Amavi has yet to withdraw at this time. Midfielder Doumbia (5 goals, 2 assists), scorer of a quadruple in his last championship match, is still with Mali competing in the CAN. Good news on the other hand for Eric Roy, with the return of young Camblan who was suspended during his team's last 3 matches. Offensively, Romain Del Castillo (5 goals, 5 assists), Jérémy Le Douaron (4 goals) and Steve Mounié (3 goals, 2 assists) are the main offensive cartridges available to the Bretons with the supersub Pereira-Lage, author of a very nice madjer to equalize at the Parc last Sunday. We should also find in the midfield the very good trio Lees-Melou, Magnetti and Camara. Little used this year, Moroccan defender Dari was loaned to Charleroi. Francesco Farioli still has to do without midfielder Beka Beka.

Still absent last week despite Algeria's elimination from the CAN, right-back Atal should remain sidelined. On the other hand, the Ivorian Boga (3 goals, 2 assists) and the scorer Moffi (6 goals, 2 assists in L1) are still selected to compete in the CAN. The precious Laborde (3 goals in L1) and winter recruit Mohamed-Ali Cho (ex-Real Sociedad, Angers) could support center forward Guessand, his team's only scorer against Metz from the penalty spot. This winter, goalkeeper number 2 Sirigu joined Fatih Karagümrük, replaced in the goalkeeper hierarchy by Maxime Dupé (Anderlecht) then the former Dijon player Valentin Rosier arrived. It is still in the recovery phase. In recent days, winger Bouanani has sought playing time on loan from Lorient, Brazilian defender Bambu from Arouca and full-back Amraoui from Amiens.
