Auxerre turned things around last matchday with a narrow but significant 1-0 victory over struggling Nice, ending a three-match losing streak.
Prior to the win, the hosts had conceded at least three goals in each of their opening three defeat. New coach Will Still needs another win to revive his side early in the season.
Auxerre will be inspired by their home form though, with only one defeat in their previous seven hostings at Stade de l’Abbe Deschamps.
Several players are sidelined for AJA, including Sekou Fofana, Marvin Senaya and Assane Diousse. As many are missing for Brest – Mamady Diambou, Mama Balde, Noah Edjouma and Brendan Chardonnet.
The visitors arrive in Auxerre following a narrow loss to Paris Saint-Germain. It marked their first defeat of the season after two draws and a win.
Their only win this term has come away from home, having beaten Le Havre 2-1 in the far north of France in their previous trip.
Brest now remain undefeated in back-to-back trips, and have the chance to post successive away league wins for the first time since February 2025.

Whispers predicts: Auxerre 1-1 Brest
Auxerre have scored in each of their last nine Ligue 1 fixtures, while five of Brest’s last six league games have seen both teams score. BTTS – Yes at 4/6 (1.67) is worth backing, considering recent history as per Bet365.
Auxerre have won both their previous home H2Hs 3-0, with only two draws to show for in six meetings. However, given the similarity of their league starts, we expect a close encounter with both sides sharing the spoils. Match result – Draw at 13/5 (3.60) offers significant returns.
Kamory Doumbia to score or assist anytime at 7/5 (2.40) carries immense value, with the Malian topping the charts after four rounds with four goals and an assist.
Under 2.5 total goals at 21/20 (2.05) is worth considering, given both their recent encounters saw only one goal each.
