Brest vs Troyes prediction, preview, team news and more | Ligue 1 2021-22

Ligue 1 continues this weekend and will see Brest host Troyes at the Stade Francis-Le Ble on Sunday afternoon in the 24th game week of the French top-flight.

Brest were beaten 2-0 by Stade Rennais in their last game and were fortunate not to have lost by a larger margin. They managed just one shot on target all game en route to a second straight loss across all competitions.

The home side sit 13th in the Ligue 1 table with 28 points from 23 games. They will now be looking to return to winning ways when they take on Troyes this weekend.

The visitors have struggled for form on their return to the French top-flight. They played out a dour goalless draw against Metz in their last game, marking their sixth game without a win in their last seven league outings.

Troyes sit 16th in the league table with just 21 points from 23 games. They are just three points away from the bottom of the table and will be looking to widen that gap with a result at Brest this Sunday.
