Brest vs Lyon Prediction and Betting Tips | November 2 2025

Brest face off with Lyon in a Ligue 1 match at the Stade Francis-Le-Ble this Sunday.

A poor run of recent form has seen Brest slip down into 14th place in the league table, while Lyon are currently in 5th, and are only two points off the top spot.

So can Brest hold them off here, or will Lyon find a way to pick up another win?

Brest vs Lyon Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

• Recent results between Brest and Lyon have been mixed, with two wins for each side and two draws in the last six meetings. Brest have come out on top in their last two games with Lyon at the Stade Francis-Le-Ble, though.
• Brest are coming into this game without a win in their last four, as they slumped to a disappointing defeat at the hands of Le Havre on Wednesday. The loss was their second in a row following a defeat to PSG in their previous game.
• Lyon's match on Wednesday was a thriller that saw them draw 3-3 with Paris FC, but it was largely a disappointment for Paulo Fonseca's side. They gave up a three-goal lead after being reduced to ten men with the dismissal of defender Abner Vinicius.
• Brest's defence should absolutely be a concern for them even at this early point of the season. Only three sides in Ligue 1 have conceded more than them, and they have only kept two clean sheets all season.
• Lyon's draw with Paris FC on Wednesday was actually their first draw of the season, as prior to that, they'd won nine and lost three of their opening 12 fixtures across all competitions.

Brest vs Lyon Prediction

While Lyon will have been disappointed by their midweek result in giving up a point to Paris FC, they still come into this match on better form than Brest, who have found things hard all season.

Not only have Brest not won in four matches, but they've struggled to keep goals out throughout the campaign, which could be a worry for them against a side like Lyon who do have plenty of attacking talent.

It likely won't be easy for Lyon, but the prediction in this one is an away win.

Prediction: Brest 1-2 Lyon
