Brest vs Angers Prediction
๐ Can Brest end their three-game losing streak? Theyโll get the chance this Sunday in Ligue 1โs Matchday 34, as the Reds host Angers. Letโs break down this clash in detail and offer a well-founded prediction for the outcome.
Head-to-Head
๐ Brest come into this matchup as favourites, at least judging by the recent head-to-head record. Les Rouges have claimed victory in five of their last six meetings with Angers, including a 2-0 win in the reverse fixture earlier this season.

Stade Brest Team Overview
๐ด Brest find themselves firmly mid-table, with little at stake in terms of movement regardless of how their next fixture plays out. The real concern for the Reds, however, is their ongoing winless streak in Ligue 1, which has now stretched to two months. They've lost three straight matches, managing to score just once during that run.
โช If Brestโs current form is down to squad rotation and preparations for the new season, then this string of defeats is understandable. But if this is simply the level of performance Eric Royโs side are capable of, the club could be facing significant issues that wonโt be solved without reinforcements. In their most recent outing, Brest fell 2-1 to Strasbourg, conceding twice in the opening 20 minutes.

Angers Team Overview
โซ Angers currently sit 13th in the table, trailing Brest by three points. The Black and Whites also have a worse goal difference-seven goals behind their rivals. Should Alexandre Dujeuxโs side claim victory and close that gap, they would leapfrog their opponents in the standings.
โช Over their last 12 fixtures, Angers have managed just a single win, and that came against one of this seasonโs strugglers, Nantes (1-0). In their previous eight league outings, Dujeuxโs men have failed to pick up a victory and havenโt scored more than one goal in any of those matches. Scoring remains a major concern for Angers-their attack has simply not delivered. Their most recent league outing ended in a 1-1 draw with Strasbourg.

Latest news
Stade Brest
โ Bradley Locko remains a doubt for the match. The defender has been sidelined for several weeks, but given Brest's shortage of options at the back, he could be rushed back into the squad. There is also uncertainty surrounding Mama Baldรฉ and Eric Junior Dina Ebimbe. Both appear to be fit, yet the coaching staff reportedly have concerns over their attitude and may opt to leave them out of the squad for the clash against Angers.
Angers
โ Angers are dealing with significant injury setbacks ahead of the upcoming match. Striker Prosper Peter remains sidelined after picking up an injury in the previous round, while midfielder Louis Mouton is also unavailable due to a knee injury sustained against Strasbourg.
๐จ Yellow Card Prediction
The upcoming match will be officiated by Mathieu Vernice. Across 93 matches in his career, Vernice averages 4.2 yellow cards per game, with an average of 29 fouls per match. In Ligue 1 this season, Brest have picked up an average of 1.8 yellow cards per game, while Angers average 1.7. Both sides have kept their discipline and rarely see many bookings, so the recommended bet is under 4.5 yellow cards at odds of 1.57*.
โฝ๏ธ Goals Prediction
Brest have averaged 1.3 goals per game in Ligue 1, while Angers are at 0.8. Both teams struggle to find the back of the net, especially as the season winds down, making under 2.5 total goals at odds of 1.82* a reasonable prediction.
๐ฉ Corner Prediction
Brest have averaged 3.8 corners per match in recent Ligue 1 fixtures, with Angers at 3.6. Both clubs generate fewer corners than the league average, so the value play here is under 9.5 total corners at odds of 1.89*.
*Odds are approximate and may vary depending on the bookmaker.
Editorโs Prediction
Weโre in for a clash between two sides languishing at the bottom of the table, both enduring a dreadful run of form as the season winds down. Not only are these teams struggling to pick up points, but theyโre also offering very little going forward-especially in attack. Given their lack of firepower, backing both teams to score: no looks like a solid bet here. Our prediction: a goalless draw.
