Les Aiglons have not appeared in the C1 final phase since their quarter-final against Real Madrid in 1960.

Brest finish in the top 10 at the end of a Ligue 1 season for the second time in a row, following their third place last season. SB29 had failed to finish in the top ten in any of their previous eight seasons in the top-flight.
