Brest vs PSG Prediction & Betting Tips (25 October)

Stade Brestois returned to Ligue 1 after a two-week break with a spectacular 3-3 draw at Lorient, where they led twice and saw victory escape them at the end of the match. This point at least allows Kamory Doumbia and his teammates to play a 4th match without losing. Before complying with international obligations, they had just won Nice 4-1 and Angers 0-2 but then stalled against FC Nantes 0-0. Brest is 12th with 9 points, 3 more than the virtual barrage. PSG was scared at the opening of the previous day against Strasbourg.

Trailing at home by two goals, the French champion came back 3-3 in the last quarter of an hour and thus lost its leadership status to the benefit of Olympique de Marseille. Stuck at one victory in the last 4 Championship matches, he obtained it at the end of September against Auxerre 2-0, a match following a defeat in the Classic at Marseille 1-0 and preceding a sharing of points with Lille 1-1. Luis Enrique and his players aspired to bounce back on Tuesday in Leverkusen, where they hoped to leave with a third victory in as many Champions League outings. 

Brest coach Eric Roy has several files to manage to put together his group. While the starting winger Baldé (1 goal) is in the recovery phase, the right side Lala with executive status left due to injury in Lorient. Less used, the full-backs Guindo and Zogbé are also uncertain for the reception of the champion. In Lorient, Del Castillo scored his 4th goal of the year and midfielder Tousart made his debut with the SB 29. Ajorque (1 goal) has not yet found his cruising speed. The truce allowed PSG to find several captains.

After Désiré Doué, Barcola and Kvaratskhelia against Strasbourg, it was captain Marquinhos and Ballon d'Or winner Dembélé (2 goals in Ligue 1) who returned this week to Leverkusen. Barcola and Ramos each scored their 4th goal in all competitions against Racing. Luis Enrique is now only waiting for the essential João Neves and Fabian Ruiz in midfield to have a complete team. The Portuguese and the Spaniard are not guaranteed to find the group this Saturday.
