Brest continue their hunt for a Champions League position in Ligue 1 this weekend when they take on an out-of-form Reims. A victory for the home side could secure a top-three finish in the standings this weekend in France’s top flight.
The race for a Champions League place in Ligue 1 could reach its conclusion this weekend, as Brest could wrap up an impressive finish in the top three with a victory should results go in their favour. They come into this round of matches after avoiding defeat in three of their last five fixtures in the competition.
Their recent upturn in form would also be a reason for optimism this weekend, as they have bounced back following two straight defeats by going two without a loss. However, a return to winning ways will be required on Friday, as they could only play out a 0-0 draw with Nantes in their previous fixture. Brest looked short of quality in the final third of that match after registering just two shots on target.
Bet hereManager-less Reims will be the visitors this weekend, as the French club opted to part ways with the hugely popular Will Still following their most recent defeat in Ligue 1. It hasn’t been a positive campaign for Reims this term, as they look set to end the campaign in the bottom half of the standings.
Reims have been in stuttering form throughout the second half of the season, and that is highlighted based on their record of failing to win across their last five. They also come into this round of matches after suffering defeats in each of their last three. Their most recent loss was suffered on the road against Clermont Foot at the end of April.
Brest landed a 2-1 success in the reverse clash between the sides in September, which ended a run of four straight draws when these sides have clashed. Reims have failed to win away from home against Brest since landing a 2-0 victory in April 2013.
Reims have very little to play for over the final two weeks of the season, and they could be vulnerable without a manager this weekend. Therefore, we will be siding with Brest landing a much-needed success in their race to achieve a Champions League finish.
