At this early stage of the season, both Angers and Brest find themselves languishing in the bottom half after enduring contrasting fortunes of late.
Match News and Current Form
When Angers beat Paris FC on opening weekend, supporters would’ve been forgiven for expecting more than a repeat of last season’s relegation battle. The four games which have followed (D2, L2) have been a harsh reminder that Angers still have plenty of work to do if they’re to compete further up the table this term. A home game could be the perfect stage for them to show they’re ready to push up the table as they’ve collected ten points from their last five Ligue 1 home games (W3, D1, L1). The first goal could be crucial for them in extending that run, as all three of those wins came after scoring first, while the two failures to win came after conceding the opener.
Brest posted a dismal return of just a single point after their opening four league games (D1, L3), but a thumping 4-1 home win against Nice last weekend offers some hope that they’ve potentially turned a corner. Securing back-to-back wins could catapult them up the table given how tightly-packed Ligue 1 is, but their away record leaves a lot to be desired, with Brest losing their last four league road trips. Perhaps the most concerning aspect of that losing run for boss Éric Roy is the ease at which they’ve been beaten, with all four defeats coming by a 2+ goal margin.
Head-to-Head History
Angers have lost three of their last four Ligue 1 matches against Brest (W1), but have won three of the last four H2Hs at home (L1). None of the last nine Angers-held H2Hs ended level (ANG: W4, L5).

Betting Analysis
Given Brest’s torrid away form, and the hosts’ tendency to perform at home, backing Angers to win as outsiders looks appealing.
