FOOTBALLBrest vs Nice prediction
Confident Brest, struggling Nice away from home
Brest come off two good results: a big 5-1 win over Angers and a 1-1 draw at Lille. They are 10th in Ligue 1 with 9 points.
Nice, 13th with 8 points, have won both their home games but lost all three league trips: at Paris FC, Auxerre and Lyon (2-1) last weekend.
African players to watch
- Kamory Doumbia (Mali): Brest's top scorer with 4 Ligue 1 goals, he is the man in form.
- Mama Baldé (Guinea-Bissau) and Pathé Mboup (Senegal) complete the Brest attack.
- Mohamed Amoura (Algeria): Nice's main attacking threat, alongside Elye Wahi.
Absentees
Brest are without Brendan Chardonnet and Raphaël Le Guen. Nice are missing Laurent Abergel, Antoine Mendy and Moïse Bombito, while Ali Abdi is a doubt.
Our view
Brest are solid at home and Nice have yet to pick up a point on the road. We go for Brest or draw.
