Match Time & Date:

17:00
Prediction: 2-1
Brest
Stade Geoffroy-Guichard will host Saturday’s Ligue 1 game between St Etienne and Brest, the two teams who sit in the opposite parts of the table. Les Verts are fighting tooth and nail to secure the survival, and a win over Brest should see them escape the relegation zone. Cameroon international Yvan Neyou is banned for the match, while Tunisia star Wahbi Khazri continues to miss out with injury.
Anyhow, home win should be considered as the hosts want this triumph more than the visitors. Les Pirates, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Nantes. Brest, though, have little to play for in Saturday’s clash, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on the relegation-threatened hosts this time out. Martin Satriano serves a one-game ban, while Sebastian Cibois is struggling with an Achilles tendon injury.
