Ligue 1 France
In the 31st round of the French Ligue 1, Brest and Lens will face off on April 24, 2026. The visitors are having an excellent season and will aim for success.
Brest vs Lens: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from "Francis-Le Blé" made their Champions League debut a year ago, losing only in the playoffs to their prestigious compatriots, PSG. But as expected, they regressed domestically—finishing ninth with 50 points. They haven't improved this season either, often losing, especially in the spring. Or, as with the underdog Nantes in the last round, they finished with a draw.
The team from "Félix Bollaert" was recently a runner-up, but last season dropped as low as eighth place. This time, however, they kept pace with PSG until spring and even led them at times, only faltering later. They beat Toulouse and closed the gap with the leaders once again. In the cup, they even managed a convincing 4-1 win against them.
Royer's side scores an average of 1.31 goals per match but concedes noticeably more—1.52. The main rival, PSG, still boasts impressive stats: 1.97 goals scored and just one conceded per match on average.
