Prediction: 2-1
Brest
Lens will be aiming to build on a 2-1 win over Le Havre when they face Brest in the Ligue 1 round 3. Les Sang et Or quickly bounced back from a 1-0 loss to Lyon and they are now on a quest to record their first home win of the process. All Jhoanner Chavez, Labeau Lascary, and Martin Satriano have been struggling with injuries of late for the home team.
Les Pirates, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 2-0 loss to Toulouse, but with Lens turning their Stade Bollaert-Delelis into a real fortress, home win should be considered. You should know that Lens have defeated Brest in each of the previous three meetings between the two teams in the French top flight. Brest boss Eric Roy has a luxury to field the best possible side against Lens on Friday evening.
