General match analysis
Although Olympique Lyonnais are 3rd in the table and Brest are 10th, the home and away statistics favour the hosts. Brest average 2 goals and 6.75 shots on target per home game, while Lyon score just 0.75 goals and record 3.5 shots on target per away game. The quality of chances also favours the hosts: Brest average 1.93 xG at home, while Lyon concede chances worth 1.63 xG on the road. Brest have scored 10 goals in their last 5 matches, but their failure to keep a clean sheet at home and their average of 1.5 goals conceded per game give the visitors a chance. Lyon have won 3 of their last 5 matches, so Brest's advantage is not strong enough to rule out a draw or an away win.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Brest averages 2.4 goals at home and has failed to score in none of the included home matches, making a Brest goal more likely. The weaker link in the scenario where both teams score is Lyon: away from home, it averages 0.75 goals and has failed to score in 50% of its matches. Brest concedes just 0.6 goals per home game and keeps a clean sheet in 40% of those appearances, while Lyon’s away BTTS rate is only 25%. However, the visitors’ recent form calls for caution: they averaged 1.4 goals across their last five matches, while Brest conceded 1.2 over that period. Even so, Lyon’s away scoring record and Brest’s home defensive strength slightly favor BTTS - No, meaning at least one team will fail to score.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
At least two goals were scored in 100% of Brest’s home matches and 75% of Lyon’s away matches, giving the Over 1.5 goals line the strongest support in the results. Brest average 2.4 goals scored at home and generate 1.77 xG, while Lyon concede 1.63 xG to opponents away from home. Both teams’ last five matches averaged 3.2 goals, further supporting the expectation of at least two goals. Higher lines are less reliable: Over 2.5 goals landed in 60% of Brest’s home matches but only 25% of Lyon’s away matches, while Over 3.5 goals landed in 40% and 0%, respectively.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
The strongest signal points to Brest leading at the break: the hosts were ahead in 4 of their 5 home matches, while Lyon did not lead in any of their 4 away games and failed to score before half-time in all of them. Brest won 4 of 5 home matches, scoring an average of 2.4 goals and conceding 0.6, whereas Lyon averaged 0.75 goals away from home. The hosts’ attacking advantage is supported by an xG of 1.77 compared with 1.09 for the visitors, as well as 6 shots on target per match versus 3.5. Brest scored an average of 1 goal after half-time at home, increasing the likelihood of them holding their lead, so 1/1 is the most probable HT/FT outcome. Confidence in the pick is tempered by Lyon’s stronger recent overall form: they won 3 of their last 5 matches, compared with Brest’s 2.
