Lyon vs Brest Prediction & Betting Tips - Coupe de la Ligue
by Daniel Ngulu | in Football Predictions
The French League Cup enters the quarter finals stage on Wednesday and among the matches lined up, Olympique Lyonnais will be hosting Brest. Lyon beat Toulouse 4-1 to book their slot here and Brest were 2-0 winners over Bordeaux. Lyon go to this game on the back of a massive win in the Coupe de France. They will be looking to extend the same to Brest, especially now that they have not had a good run in Ligue 1. Lyon have eight wins, five losses and three clean sheets in their last 15 matches. Six of their last 10 matches have produced over 2.5 goals and they have scored in seven of their last 10 matches. Lyon have scored two or more goals in six of their last 10 matches and conceded twice in just two of the last 10. They will need to put more effort at home though; in their last four matches, they have one win at home. This season, they have played 13 home matches, and won just five. They have no clean sheet in the last six home matches and have failed to score in two of their last four home matches. In the League Cup, Lyon have won four of their last 10 matches, losing six (two of the six losses came in post match penalties). Lyon have managed just one clean sheet in 24 League Cup matches. They have met seven times with Brest, and have never lost. Five of the seven meetings ended in draws.
Brest are out of the French Cup after their loss to Lorient in extra time and here they will be seeking some reprieve. They get to this game on a weaker footing, having lost three of their last five matches, while looking at the fact that they have never beaten Lyon, makes it worse. In their last seven matches, Brest have managed four clean sheets. They have two wins and six losses in their last 10 matches. They have won five of the last 15 matches and six of their last 15 have ended in over 2.5 goals. Brest have failed to score in three of their last five matches and scored in 11 of their last 15. They have scored two or more goals in four of their last 15 matches and conceded two or more in five of their last 15. They have five straight away losses and just one clean sheet in 11 away matches. In the last 11 matches, they have just two wins, and one of these was on post match penalties. Brest have scored more than one goal on only one occasion in the last 11 away matches. This clash is normally a low scoring affair; of the seven meetings between these two sides, only one has produced over 2.5 goals.

Our Lyon vs Brest Prediction
Lyon are clear favorites here; they have never lost to Brest, and carry a better run of form to the game. They will be playing at home, though they have not been entirely comfortable at home, judging from their results. They have not managed a clean sheet in their last six matches at home and have kept just one clean sheet in the last 24 French League cup matches. On the flipside, Brest have also not been doing well, and especially away from home. They have not scored more than one goal in 10 of their last 11 away matches and we feel that may also come to play given that this is normally not a high scoring match. Brest are still struggling after their promotion to Ligue 1 and have not done well away from home. We feel they will lose this game too, but perhaps the better odds will come with going for Under 2.5 goals in this game.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
