Stade Francis-Le Blé - Brest
Brest have lost a Ligue 1 home game after scoring the opening goal for the first time since 9 October 2022 (1-2 v Lorient). Lens, meanwhile, have taken eight points away from home in L1 2024-25 after conceding the first goal of a game, the highest tally with Paris SG.
Brest have won just three of their last nine Ligue 1 matches (4N 2D), after having won six of their previous nine (3D).
Lens have won four of their last six Ligue 1 matches (2D), one more than in their first nine in 2025 (3V 6D).
Brest have lost each of their last two games against Lens in Ligue 1 and could suffer three consecutive defeats for the first time in their history against this opponent in the top-flight.
Brest have a 69% home win rate against Lens in Ligue 1 (9/13 – D1 L1), their highest percentage against a club they have played at home at least 10 times. RCL could become the first team that Brest manage to beat 10 times at home in Ligue 1.
Brest have scored 47 goals in their first 29 Ligue 1 2024-25 games, their highest tally at this stage of a season in the top-flight.
With six draws in their first 15 games of Ligue 1 2024-25 (W6 L3), the joint-highest tally with Lille and Nice over the period, Lens have not shared the points since (W6 L8).
Brest have conceded just one goal in their last three home games in Ligue 1, having conceded seven in the previous two.
