Under 2.5 goals at Brest vs Marseille 1/1 for Sunday’s Ligue 1 contest

Competition: Ligue 1

Market: Under 2.5 goals

Odds: 1/1 @ 888sport

In what could turn out to be another low-scoring affair this weekend, Marseille will make the trip to Brest on Sunday night when they face off against Brest.

Starting with the hosts, managing to make an immediate return to winning ways last time out, there is no doubt that Brest will be desperate to build off of those positives. In their 27 Ligue 1 matchups so far this season, they have recorded nine wins, eight draws and 10 defeats, scoring 35 and conceding 38 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 35, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat 12th in the standings and five points adrift of finding a route into the top-half. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 1-0 win away at Lens, Brest have lost just one of their last four Ligue 1 outings. Likewise, it should also be highlighted, along with seeing seven of their last eight matchups finish with under 2.5 goals, Sunday’s hosts have seen three of their previous four home fixtures finish in an identical outcome.

As for the visitors, while Marseille might still find themselves battling it out at the top of the Ligue 1 table, they are enduring a recent domestic blip. In their 27 top-flight matchups so far this season, they have recorded 13 wins, eight draws and six defeats, scoring 39 and conceding 25 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 47, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat third in the standings and holding a three-point buffer from dropping out of the Champions League places. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 1-0 loss at home against Monaco, Marseille have failed to win any of their previous three Ligue 1 matchups. Likewise, it should also be noted, with each of those three top-flight contests finishing with under 2.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
