Brest to ease past Le Havre. They are odds-on for a reason.

Brest supporters can take something from the recent results of both teams. The hosts have registered 10 wins in 15 matches. Without so much success the visitors aren't exactly looking like hall-of-famers, with 4 consecutive defeats home and away. They need to ready themselves for another defeat here.

Looking ready for battle, the home side has been satisfied with their output in defence. They'll see this clash as an opportunity to keep a clean sheet; they're doing something right. They've only conceded 1 goal in their last 7 games at home. Couple that with allegations that the visitors look a little reluctant under pressure. In away matches Le Havre have conceded three or more goals in 3 of their last 4 campaigns. These stats might be the difference between winning and losing. If so you are likely to see the home team pick holes in their defence.

In their last apperance Brest blitzed Strasbourg, eventually winning 3-0.

Brest are justifiable favourites and it's possible they just don't give up any ground to Le Havre. It is not a strong view so maybe best to give it a miss but the No BTTS bet looks like the pick there.
