Lorient – Brest : Preview & Prediction
FC Lorient is 13th overall and must return to victory … a victory that has eluded the Hake since September 22, more than a month. The arrival of the 18th can be an opportunity to revive the Lorient machine which could return to the first half of the standings with 3 additional points. In his enclosure at Moustoir, the formation of Christophe Pélissier has already obtained 11 points out of 15 distributed against Monaco (1-0), against Lille (2-1), in front of Nice (1-0), against Clermont (1-1) ) and against Bordeaux (1-1) recently. The rout suffered in Strasbourg (4-0) last weekend is still in the minds of Lorient who will be keen to redeem themselves in front of their supporters. Stade Brestois managed a fairly lucky draw in Lille (1-1) during its last trip after 2 failures in Nantes (3-1) and Nice (2-1). The Brestois, 18th, came back to 2 points from the first non-relegation Reims thanks to a series of 3 games without defeat against Reims (1-1), in Lille (1-1) and in front of Monaco (2-0) on October 31 latest. But this short trip could plunge the Brestois back into doubt!
