Get With the Favourites on the Asian Handicap

The best play could be Brest conceding -0.25 on the Asian Handicap at 2.04. A win lands a nice return and a draw against Lens has the insurance of half our stake being returned.

Lens 2-0 to the Good in Previous H2H

Brest played out a 3-3 draw in their last game. This was away from home at Stade Geoffroy Guichard against Saint-Étienne. The Brittany club had 40% possession and totalled five shots on target, while Ludovic Ajorque registered two goals and Abdallah Sima scored the other.

RC Lens were defeated in their previous game, being beaten at home to Reims by a 2-0 scoreline at Stade Bollaert-Delelis. Les Sang et Or dominated possession with 70% of the ball and managed fourteen shots on goal.
