PSG vs Brest preview

The Parisians may be running away with the Ligue 1 title but their recent results have not been overly impressive.

Defensively, PSG have been less solid than they would like and their record of two clean sheets in their last nine league matches underlines just how regularly their opponents have been able to cause them problems.

Brest, meanwhile, boast a superb scoring record on the road, having netted in all 10 away matches they have contested in the French top flight this season, and the visitors will be confident of being able to at the very least get on the score sheet.

The most recent meeting between the sides saw Brest net twice in a 4-2 defeat and backing goals at both ends once again this weekend should appeal.

Both teams to score is priced at 4/5 (1.80) and looks like an excellent option while combining this selection with over 2.5 goals sees the odds rise to evens (2.00).
