Auxerre vs Brest Predictions

Auxerre have won four of their last six home games in Ligue 1 and they should be backed to get the victory against Brest on Sunday.

Brest are six places above Auxerre in the table, but just two points separate the two sides. They are ninth with one win, two draws and one defeat from their four games, which is a better record than Auxerre, who are 15th with one win and three losses.

Auxerre are in form going forward, having scored in 11 of their last 12 league games. They have found the net in nine consecutive matches, including a recent 3-1 victory over Angers.

Brest are unreliable favourites. They have failed to win two of their last three Ligue 1 games as favourites.

The visitors’ recent away form has been disappointing, with Brest failing to win in nine of their last ten Ligue 1 games on the road.

Brest’s defence has been far from watertight, with the visitors failing to keep a clean sheet in 13 straight Ligue 1 games. They have gone seven away games without shutting out the opposition.

Auxerre may be able to edge out Brest in a closely-fought game, with a 2-1 home win the correct-score pick. Both teams have scored in three of Auxerre’s four Ligue 1 games this season.
