TOULOUSE V BREST PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS

Toulouse (4^th) form has been pretty impressive lately, they only lost 1 game (2-0 against PSG), they drew 4 times and won 4 games. They really want to improve they form at home where they have difficulties to win games because they concede goals early in the game. They drew the last 3 games they played a home.

Brest (14^th) is a pretty solid team at home but is the worst team of the league when they are playing outside Brittany. They lost all the games played away (5 games) whereas they won 3 games and drew one at home.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Toulouse is full of confidence and sure of its strength after having totally outclassed Evian last week (0-4). Etienne Didot was radiant in midfield during this game, he delivered 3 assists, even Riviere who was very awkward from the start of the season had a very good game with 2 nice goals. Besides, Moussa Sissoko will be back in the team to host Brest so all all lights are green in Toulouse at the moment.

Brest’s level of play is really poor this season, especially away. They will probably play in Toulouse the same way they have been playing against Lyon, which means 9 players defending and waiting for the other team to control the ball. They only lost 1-0 but the possession of the ball was only of 25% for Brest at the end of the match. They would have taken many goals without a great performance from their goalkeeper Alexis Thebaud.

TOULOUSE V BREST PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETTING PREVIEW

Toulouse is a strong favorite, the best price is offered by William Hill at 1.50.

Pinnacle offers the best odds for draw at 4.04 and for Brest to win at 8.82.

Considering what has been shown by Toulouse during the last games, I would definitely go for a win of Toulouse although meetings between these 2 teams often end up with a boring draw (last season they drew 0-0 in Toulouse and in Brest).

TOULOUSE V BREST PREDICTIONS: ASIAN HANDICAP PREVIEW

I don’t expect many goals to be scored in this game, Toulouse will probably push forward and struggle to score, so if they win, I don’t think there will be more than 1 goal margin. Therefore, I would recommend to choose the Asian handicap Brest + 1.25 with Pinnacle at 1.78.

TOULOUSE V BREST PREDICTIONS: TOTAL GOALS PREVIEW

The under is favorite here and it’s obvious if you have a look at statistics: These 2 teams have met 5 times since 2010 and the total of goals has always been under 2.5 goals.

Therefore and considering the way both teams are playing, I think there is a bit of value on the under offered by Pinnacle at 1.70. If you think there will be many goals, Tipico offers a nice odd of 2.30 for the over 2.5 goals.
