The starting lineup for each team is from their last match in this tournament.

Brest

The Bretons achieved their first away victory of the current campaign, defeating Reims 2-1 in their previous match. This result extended the club's unbeaten streak in Ligue 1 to three games (2 wins, 1 draw), lifting them from 13th to 10th place in the French championship standings, just one point shy of the European competition spots. However, the club still has a negative goal difference this season in Ligue 1 – 13:15.

• Brest scored first in 6 of their last 7 Ligue 1 encounters.
• At home, the team has not lost in 15 of their last 17 matches in the tournament (9 wins, 6 draws).
• No more than 2 goals were scored in 6 of the last 8 home matches for Brest in the French championship.

Nice

After three consecutive draws in Ligue 1, Nice won their last round in the derby against Monaco with a score of 2-1. This result brought Nice's unbeaten and goal-scoring streak in the championship to five matches. After 9 games played, the club is in 8th place in the Ligue 1 standings, having scored twice as many goals as they have conceded (18:9). It's worth noting that in the previous season, both matches between Nice and Brest ended in a goalless draw.

• The club hasn't lost in 13 of their last 16 matches in the top French division (6 wins, 7 draws).
• There was an exchange of goals in 8 of Nice's last 11 Ligue 1 matches.
• The team failed to keep a clean sheet in 7 of their last 8 away games in the championship.

Brest vs Nice: Match Prediction

The Bretons are in excellent form and, considering their Champions League matches, have not lost in 5 games (3 wins, 2 draws). The fact that the team has finally managed to secure an away win in the current Ligue 1 season by defeating a solid Reims side speaks volumes. Moreover, Brest has been solid at home, securing 'dry' victories in 3 of their last 4 French championship encounters (1 draw).

Furthermore, the upcoming opponents from Nice have been performing poorly on the road this season in Ligue 1, without a win in their last 3 matches. And over a longer period, Nice has been noticeably weaker in away games, failing to win in 14 of their last 17 matches in the tournament (7 draws, 7 losses). With such disappointing away results, I doubt the team can stop the confidently performing Bretons at their home ground.

Also in favor of Brest is the statistic of the last few head-to-head meetings at home, where they have not lost in 4 out of the previous 5 Ligue 1 matches (2 wins, 2 draws). I believe that the hosts will not lose this time either. My prediction is "Brest win or draw" with the odds of .
