Brest won't lose by much
Rennes have not exactly enjoyed their best run of form recently; they suffered three losses in their last five matches, with one win in that stretch. Rennes find themselves at the 13th spot on the Ligue 1 table, with four points from a possible 12. In like manner, Brest have had the same record as Rennes so far; they've won one, drawn one and lost two of four league games, and are directly below Rennes on the league table. There isn't much separating these sides, and we don't think that Brest will lose this match by more than one goal; on that note, we're playing it safe, by backing Brest +1.25.
Expecting goals at both ends
It's important to note that these teams tend to score when they meet; as a matter of fact, four of the last five clashes between Rennes and Brest saw goals scored at both ends. In the same vein, both teams have not been able to keep the goals out; as Rennes and Brest have no clean sheets in their last five respective games. Moreover, both teams scored in four of Rennes's last five, and in three of Brest's last four games. All things considered, we should expect both teams to score.

Anticipating a close encounter
Brest arrive into this game as the much fancied side in the eyes of the bookies but that's a bold spin given the two sides have both amassed four points from their opening four games. They've done so in the same manner too with a win, a draw and two defeats. This should be a close encounter and an intriguing match to watch.
Leslie Ugochukwu will not be available for selection, as he is serving the second of his three-match suspension; besides Ugochukwu, Rennes have a host of injury concerns ahead of this match. Arnaud Kalimuendo and Lovro Majer picked up injuries in matchday 2, while Warmed Omari is still recovering from a groin injury he sustained last season.
Rennes Predicted lineup – Alemdar, Traore, Rodon, Theate, Truffert, Doue, Santamaria, Tait, Doku, Terrier, Bourigeaud
Pierre Lees Melou saw a straight red card as Brest fell to a humiliating 7:0 loss at the hands of Montpellier; he will join a lengthy list of absentees for Brest. As a matter of fact, Brest will not be able to call on the services of Christophe Herelle, Romain Del Castillo, Noah Fadiga and Steve Mounie.
Brest Predicted lineup – Bizot, Duverne, Chardonnet, Dari, Brassier, Magnetti, Belkebla, Dembélé, Lage, Douaron, Belaili
