Both teams have not had the best start to the season. Who will be able to score points in the upcoming confrontation? The answer is in our forecast. Which event should you choose for your bet?
Command Analysis
Brest
FranceCurrent form
Brest does not show high results in the national championship, but strives to achieve maximum success in the Champions League, where the "pirates" have already won two opening rounds. In the national championship, Eric Roy protégés are not even in the top 10 (11th place). The upcoming opponent is one line below, so, of course, the hosts will play to win, so as not to fall even lower.
Disqualifications and injuries
Loko is injured and Haidara is disqualified.
Interesting trends for betting
Brest have won their last four home matches
The hosts have scored in their last five games in front of local fans
Estimated composition: Bizot - Lala, Chardonnay, Coulibaly, Amavi - Lis-Melou, Camara, Magnetti - Del Castillo, Ajorque, Sima.
Rennes
FranceCurrent form
Rennes are not showing impressive play either. The team has not achieved a single victory in the last three rounds. In defense, it can be said that the opponents were not the easiest. First, the "red-blacks" drew with Lens (1:1), then lost to PSG (1:3), and then to Monaco (1:2). The attack line works well, because even in matches with strong opponents, the team manages to score at least once.
Disqualifications and injuries
Alemdar is injured, Asignon is disqualified.
Interesting trends for betting
Rennes have lost their last four away matches
Rennes have conceded away goals in seven consecutive matches
Tentative line-up: Mandanda - Ostigard, Faye, Seydou - Hatebourg, Matusiwa, Kamara, Truffer - Bla, Gronbeck, - Kalimuendo Muinga.

1.77Tip and bets
Despite the bookmakers' odds, we believe that Brest has a better chance of winning, but the "pirates" have the third round of the Champions League ahead, in which they will meet Bayer. Because of this, the hosts can play in an energy-saving mode to try to earn points both in the national championship and in European cups.
Our prediction is that Brest will not lose with odds of 1.58
Bet on total
The teams played each other for the last time at the end of April this year, and then they scored nine goals between them. It is unlikely that such a total will be repeated, but the teams are quite capable of upsetting each other at least once.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.78
Bet on corners
In theory, the game should not be closed. This means that there is a high probability that the two opponents will make quite a few corner flag serves.
Our prediction is total over 8.5 corners with odds of 1.77
