Will they be able to extend their winning streak on January 15? The answer is in our betting tip. Which event should you choose for a bet?

Command Analysis

Brest

Current form
Brest played much better in the national championship. After an unsuccessful start, when the Bretons concentrated their efforts on the performances in the Champions League, the team was dragging at the bottom of the tournament table, but in three of the last five rounds the hosts were able to win, but are still outside the top 10 (11th place).
In the last round of the French Cup, Brest played against FC Les Roches. Many analysts were leaning towards a confident victory for the pirates, but it was minimal (1:0). To get to the 1/8, they will need to play much better against their upcoming opponent.
Disqualifications and injuries
Li-Melu, Le Cardinal, Martin, Koulibaly and Loko will not appear on the field due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Brest have won their last four matches at home
- The hosts have managed to score in six of their last seven matches
Estimated line-up: Bizot - Lala, N'Diaye, Chardonnet, Haidara - Magnetti, Fernandes, Camara - Doumbia, Ajorque, Pereira Laj.

Nantes

Current form
Nantes have not lost yet this year, and this is very commendable, because first there was an away game with Lille, where the meeting ended in a draw (1:1), and in the last match, the Canaries drew with Monaco on their home field (2:2). Moreover, in the match with the Monegasques, they were leading 2:0. These high-quality performances allowed them to leave the relegation zone, and now the team is in a safe place, but so far only on additional indicators.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kadewere, Mahmoud and Lafont are injured and will not be able to help their team.
Interesting trends for betting
- Nantes are unbeaten for three games in a row
- The visitors have scored in the last six games
Probable line-up: Lopes - Amian, Castelletto, Zeze, Cozza - Augusto, Lepenan, Gbamen - Thomas, Ablain, Simon.

1.70Tip and bets
This season Brest is performing brilliantly on its home field. During the passed part the team suffered only two defeats in all tournaments: from Nice (1:2) and from Marseille (1:5). Exactly a month ago they managed to win the national championship with a score of 4:1 against their upcoming opponent. It is unlikely that they will be able to win so big this time, but we still believe in the success of the pirates.
Our prediction is Brest victory with odds of 2.10
Bet on total
Brest have failed to score in just one of their last ten home games, while Nantes have scored in their last six away games, suggesting that both teams could score in 90 minutes of play.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.97
Bet on corners
The teams are trying to contain flank attacks and are wary of corners. Even in the last face-to-face encounter, when five goals were scored between the two teams, only five corners were taken. We believe that in the upcoming encounter there will also be few.
Our prediction is total under 8.5 corners with odds of 1.78
