Le Mans FC vs BrestPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Le Mans reach the first round of the season after a 0-1 at home against Le Havre, a goalless draw at Saumur, a 1-1 at home with UNFP, a 3-2 win at Angers and a 1-0 over Nantes in front of their own supporters. Stade Brestois 29 lost 0-2 at Nottingham Forest, drew 2-2 at home with Venezia, won 2-1 away at Stade Briochin, finished 3-3 with Guingamp and lost 0-2 to Al Wakrah. Neither club has a result on the board in this Ligue 1 yet, so the reading rests on those games, where the visitors let in at least two goals in four cases out of five. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
