Nantes vs Brest Prediction and Betting Tips | October 16, 2022 

Nantes will host Brest at the Stade de la Beaujoire on Sunday (October 16) afternoon in Ligue 1.

The Canaries have endured an abysmal start to their season, which has pressure now mounting on manager Antoine Kombouare. They were beaten 3-0 by Stade Rennais in their last league outing.

Nantes then suffered an embarrassing 4-0 home defeat against Freiburg in the UEFA Europa League in midweek. Nantes are 19th in the standings with just seven points from ten games. They will exit the drop zone with a win this weekend and will look to do just that.

Brest, meanwhile, have also struggled to come alive this season, but unlike their opponents, they have parted ways with manager Michel Der Zakarian. They were beaten 2-1 by high-flying Lorient in their last game, squandering the lead handed to them by Romain Del Castillo inside 20 minutes.

The visitors are rock-bottom in the standings and are just one point behind their weekend opponents. Best will look to leapfrog them with maximum points this weekend.

Nantes vs Brest Prediction

Nantes have lost their last four games on the bounce and are winless in their last seven. They are on a run of back-to-back winless and goalless outings at home and will be desperate to end that streak.

Brest are also on a seven-game winless streak. They are winless in their last three away games but could secure a point against a fellow struggling team on Sunday.

Prediction: Nantes 1-1 Brest
