Lyon vs Brest Predictions

• Lyon are on a five-game winning run across all competitions.
• Brest have five defeats in eight trips.
• Brest have scored in six consecutive games.

Lyon can handle Brest

Lyon entertain Brest in the late Ligue 1 kick off on Sunday and they look well placed to claim all three points as they bid to break into the top four.

Les Gones have won their last five games across all competitions and have been strong at home all season, with six wins in their eight league assignments at Parc Olympique Lyonnais.

Brest have struggled on the road with just seven points to show from their eight away league games, losing five of those trips, and they’ve won just one of their last six away across all competitions.

However, clean sheets have been an issue for Lyon as they’ve managed just two in their last six games and Brest are in reasonable scoring form, having gone six games without drawing a blank. As such, backing a home win with goals at both ends appeals here.

A 3-1 win for Lyon is the correct score prediction as Lyon have scored eight goals across their last three games, while Brest have conceded exactly three goals in half of their road fixtures in this competition.

Pavel Sulc is Lyon’s leading scorer in the league with eight goals in 16 games. Sulc has six goals across his last five appearances in all competitions and he looks a strong contender for an anytime effort against Brest.
