Brest are having a dream season in Ligue 1. The Pirates are third in the league and on the verge of Champions League qualification. Will our AI score prediction forecast a Brest win on matchday 33?
Only two matches remain in the Ligue 1 season. A win for Brest could see them qualify for next season’s Champions League qualifying rounds.
However, Brest’s chances of finishing third will depend on Lille’s result against Nantes.
The Pirates will welcome Reims to the Stade Francis-Le Bie for this big clash. Reims are 12th in the standings and on a run of poor form.
Reims lost their last three matches in Ligue 1. The Reds are safe from relegation and will play Ligue 1 football next season. Their safety has likely led, in some way, to the poor run of form.
Brest took 10 points from the last 18 points on offer in the league. They scored 13 goals and conceded 13 times.
The Pirates have been excellent playing at home this season. Thirty of their 57 points have come at the Stade Francis-Le Bie.
Reims are second-from-bottom in the current form table. They picked up just five points from the last six matches, scoring six goals and conceding 11 times.
Nineteen of the Reds 40 points have come on the road in 2023-24. Reims were outscored 28-22 away from home.
Brest have Ligue 1’s fourth-best attack. They have scored 49 times in 32 matches. In addition, Brest have the league’s fourth-best defence, conceding just 33 times in Ligue 1.
Reims, on the other hand, have scored just 38 times in 32 matches. Defensively, they have allowed 45 goals to opponents.
Reims’ attack struggled during their currently three-game losing streak, scoring just three goals. Meanwhile, they allowed nine goals.
Four of the last six matches between these teams in all competitions ended as draws. However, Brest picked up a 2-1 win in the teams’ reverse fixture this season.
Reims opened the scoring in the 19th minute through Amir Richardson, but Brest fought back. Mahdi Camara and Piere Lees-Melou found the back of the net in the second half to lead the Pirates to the win.
Just one of the last six meetings between the clubs ended with over 2.5 goals. Of course, the match with over 2.5 goals was played earlier this season.
With Brest playing so well in Ligue 1 and Reims struggling with three straight losses, our algorithm forecasts a score prediction of 2-0 to the Pirates.
