Eric Roy‘S Brest recorded some excellent results of the Champions League at the beginning of the season and achieved a run of six wins of seven between mid-December and mid-January, but their current seven match win series endangered their campaign.

The last time Les Pirates was hit 2-1 to Lyon in a game, which will ultimately be remembered for the actions of Les Gones Boss Paulo Fonseca That brought him an unprecedented nine -month ban.

Roy’s team disappointed the early tour on the field, which Kenny Lala Had gave them from the penalty point and the defeat last Sunday, the hosts in the French top class with six points behind OL, who takes the place of the division to enter the qualification of the Conference League.

To make things worse, Brest’s home record was particularly bad, and with four losses and a draw from their five youngest games in Stade Francis-Le BLE, they will not confidence if they play on their own lawn.

Regardless of this, three points on Sunday Les Pirates were able to skip through the lens and the Toulouse, which should prove to be favorable elsewhere – and leave three points behind the European places – although the defeat would mean that their opponents would only be three points behind them.

In the meantime, Alexandre Dujeux‘S Anglers were in a mixed form before the collision of this weekend and with three defeats, two draws and only one profit form their last six Ligue -1 games against a fighting Brest as a golden opportunity to bring points to the board.

Most recently, Le Sco pursued her removal from the Coupé de France by being a defeat at the end of a 4-0-thrashing through Toulouse, the Dujeux ‘men 13th in the table, seven points over Le Havre in the spot for relegation.

On Sunday, visitors will be confident of taking important points for three points due to the poor form of their opponents and their own excellent records with six victories, a draw and only one loss in all competitions since mid -December.

If Angers triumphed on the street this weekend, they were able to land at 11th place on the next match day, with a victory possibly fetching in front of the competitors Auxerre and Rennes and making their status more secure in the division.
