Lens vs Brest Predictions

• Lens have won five of their last seven meetings with Brest
• The corresponding fixture last term finished 2-0 to Lens
• Brest lost 2-0 at Toulouse last week

Lens can focus on another winning image

Lens have a good recent record in meetings with Brest, and we predict another victory for the Blood & Gold.

Five of the last seven match-ups have fallen the way of Lens who can focus on back-to-back victories following last week’s 2-1 win at Le Havre.

Brest succumbed to a 2-0 loss at Toulouse last week, and they could suffer the same fate on the trip East.

The corresponding fixture last season finished 2-o to Lens, who followed it up with a 3-1 win on the return in Brest and another comfortable victory should be within reach.

Brest’s last two away league trips have seen them fail to score and they lost those fixtures by an aggregate of 8-0.

Things may be not be as drastic in this encounter, but backing a 2-0 home win looks the best course of action for correct-score purposes.

Lens have scored at least two goals in three of their last four meetings with the Pirates but they may not need a swashbuckling performance to see off their rivals on Friday.
