Match Analysis

Brest's recent form has been inconsistent, with a mixed bag of results in their last three outings. They suffered defeats against Lyon and Rennes while managing to secure a win at home against Auxerre. Their goal-scoring capabilities have been modest, averaging 1.2 goals per game over the last five matches, yet they have shown some defensive solidity with two clean sheets in the same period. Their expected goals (xG) of 1.916 suggests they have been creating scoring opportunities, but converting them remains a challenge. Toulouse, on the other hand, displayed a strong performance in their last match, crushing Nice with a 5-1 victory. However, they couldn't carry that momentum against Lens, where they lost 3-0. Their away win against Paris FC demonstrated resilience, with a clean sheet to match. Toulouse has averaged 1.6 goals per game in their last five outings but has been vulnerable at the back with an average of 1.0 goals conceded. Their xG of 1.246 indicates a moderate offensive threat, which they will need to capitalize on against Brest.

Final Prediction

Brest's slight edge in the prediction could stem from their home advantage and the ability to maintain defensive stability in recent matches. One key factor to watch will be whether Brest can convert their chances effectively, given their higher expected goals statistic. With both teams showing potential in attack but also weaknesses in defense, the match promises to be a closely contested affair.
