Brest to Win
There is a mountain to be climbed for Avranches, a team that is placed in the Third Division. They are in the lower part of the rankings, and with the way their season has been moving along, it is going to be a struggle to maintain their league status. A meeting against teams from Ligue 1 will always be a huge challenge for Avranches.
Over 2.5 Goals
Four of the last five matches Brest played ended with more than two goals scored, and Avranches's form has been very similar in that aspect. As one would expect, Avranches also plays more effective football when they are at home compared to their away matches. Brest, on the other hand, has one of the worst defenses in Ligue 1.

Preview, Predicted Lineups, and Team News
Avranches
In the last two rounds of the French Cup, Avranches played as an away team winning 2-0 at Chartres-de-Bretagne and 1-0 against Fougeres. You probably haven't heard about these teams as they are amateur sides that get to have some national attention only during this kind of matches, or competitions. Avranches took their chances and managed to get past through to the 7th round where they are facing a much more formidable opponent. The hosts were in a bad run of form recently losing four straight matches, before winning the last two which gave them some breathing space in front of other relegation candidates. However, their season is focused on the mission to remain where they are right now, and games like the one against Brest will give their players a chance to face competition they usually can watch only on their TV screens. Pierre Magnon is an injury concern for the home team, while their most important player, striker Ihsan Sacko is roaring to face Brest.
Predicted lineup: Beuve, Baret, Mendy, Falouh, Godart, Daguin, Boateng, Kerouedan, Mercier, Pollet, Sacko.
Brest
Brest failed to win any of their two games since returning to action from the World Cup break, and they will be looking to come into some positive form against Avranches. Perhaps, maybe it's not ideal to play in the Cup competition right now when they are fighting for survival in Ligue 1, but there is little choice than to take advantage of the opportunity and maybe progress a bit further in the draw. Brest has been all over the place with their defense this season, recording 33 conceded goals which is one of the highest marks in the league. They don't have a reliable striker who could carry the team consistently, and that is the problem coach Bruno Grougi has to be concerned about going toward the final stage of the season. The positive news is that there are no injury worries for the team.
Predicted lineup: Bizot, Fadiga, Chardonnet, Herelle, Uronen, Camara, Lees-Melou, Magnetti, Del Castillo, Slimani, Honorat.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
Player to Watch: Romain Del Castillo
The best scorer Brest has to offer at this point of the season. He scored four times in the league, and he is not even a true striker, but rather a wing player. He is also credited with four assists.
