Brest vs Paris SG – Betting Analysis
A quick look at their previous head to head meetings stretching back to 09/01/2021 shows us that these encounters have been disappointments for Brest.
They haven’t been able to win any games at all, while PSG has been too strong for them, winning all of the games they have played.
During this time, the two teams combined for 17 goals, with 2 coming from Les Ty’ Zefs and 15 from Les Rouge-et-Bleu. 2.83 goals have been scored on average per contest.

Due to a nearly full-strength roster of players, almost everyone can be taken into consideration. Brest coach Éric Roy only has one fitness concern. Dead Leg’s Brendan Chardonnet is out of commission.
According to us, Les Ty’ Zefs might start this match in a 4-3-3 configuration with Marco Bizot, Noah Fadiga, Achraf Dari, Lilian Brassier, Jean-Kevin Duverne, Pierre Lees-Melou, Hugo Magnetti, Haris Belkebla, Franck Honorat, Steve Mounie, and Jeremy Le Douaron as their starters.
Christophe Galtier, the PSG manager, is presently dealing with fewer team options. The following players are unable to participate Achraf Hakimi (hamstring injury), Renato Sanches (hamstring injury), Presnel Kimpembe (Achilles tendon rupture), and Neymar (ankle surgery).
Les Rouge-et-Bleu are expected to start Gianluigi Donnarumma, Nordi Mukiele, Marquinhos, Sergio Ramos, Nuno Mendes, Fabian Ruiz, Danilo Pereira, Marco Verratti, Vtinha, Lionel Messi, and Kylian Mbappe in a 4-3-1-2 formation.
Brest should be able to score in this match against this Paris Saint-Germain squad, but even one goal might not stop them from giving up two at the other end.
