Brest vs Lyon Prediction & Betting tips
Stade Brestois failed to lose for the fifth time this season last weekend, while Olympique Lyonnais failed to win for the fourth consecutive competition. Can the PhD student benefit from the lesser shape of Sylvinho’s team?
Stade Brestois:
At the end of August, PhD student Stade Brestois went down hard to visit Nîmes Olympique, but since the interland break the team of Olivier Dall’Oglio has recovered well. Both Stade Rennais and Girondins de Bordeaux grabbed a point, which means that the PhD student has now collected seven points and has already played four of the six league matches. If Stade Brestois manages to continue the current form, the team will score 44 points at the end of the season, more than enough for retention.
The undisputed star player of Dall’Oglio so far is Mathias Autret. The 28-year-old midfielder made little impression in his previous seasons in the Ligue 1, but last year, with nine goals, Autret already made an important contribution to the promotion of his team. Also this season, Autret is on track with two goals and two assists, with which he is involved in eighty percent of his team’s goal production, more than any player in the Ligue 1 at the moment.
Olympique Lyonnais:
After a disappointing series of three draws against Girondins de Bordeaux, Amiens and Zenit Saint Petersburg, Olympique Lyonnais did not win in the top match against Paris Saint-Germain last weekend. Against the Parisians, Sylvinho’s team, where Memphis Depay played the entire game, did not score a single goal, while goalkeeper Anthony Lopes had to keep the answer to a bet by Neymar Jr. in the final phase. With just two points from the last four league games, Olympique Lyonnais has now dropped to ninth place with a seven-point deficit on PSG.
The backlog in second place is still manageable with four points, but in theory this may have risen to ten points at the end of this week. In addition, Sylvinho’s team also expects an away match against RB Leipzig in the group stage of the Champions League next week, leaving little time to try out new systems between matches. Despite the lack of results, the players and supporters continue to support their Brazilian coach, but Sylvinho will not be able to continue on the two victories at the start of the season.
