Lyon and Brest square off against each other at Groupama Stadium in a Ligue 1 clash where home advantage and attacking form favor the hosts. Therefore, we predict a 3-1 home win. Les Gones have won each of their last five games in all competitions, including a 2-1 Coupe de France win over Lille, scoring an average of 2.9 goals per game while conceding just 0.7. Their clean sheet rate stands at 50%, with BTTS recorded in 40% of games, showing a balanced attack and defense. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, which definitely goes in favour of our betting angle.
Les Pirates, on the other hand, have been inconsistent on the road, winning only 20% of away matches, although they are coming off a 2-0 win against another Ligue 1 side. Key forward Mama Balde is unlikely to play, which could blunt their attack. Brest score 1 goal per game on average and concede 1.4, making them vulnerable against a Lyon side averaging over 2 goals scored at home.
Historically, Lyon dominate H2H, winning 37% of matches while BTTS occurred in 74% of encounters, suggesting both sides find the net often. As Lyon are on a five-game winning run in all competitions, we predict Home Win, alongside Over 2.5 goals and Lyon Over 1.5.
This Ligue 1 match will be played on Sunday 18 January 2026 at 19:45.
