Second-placed Lille have conceded just four goals in six Ligue 1 games, and they welcome a Brest side to the Stade Pierre-Mauroy on Saturday night, kick-off 7.45pm, that hammered Angers 5-1 last time out.

Our Lille vs Brest predictions and betting tips are below, with Anthony Eadson’s best bets and score prediction.

Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson expects Lille’s defence to be the difference.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Ayase Ueda to score anytime5/4 (bet365)Ueda leads the line for a Lille side that has turned the Pierre-Mauroy into a fortress, and the Japan striker has already found the net twice this season. Lille’s control of games tends to create clear chances, and against a Brest defence yet to keep a clean sheet this season, their centre-forward is well placed to add to his tally. At 5/4, Ueda to score anytime is a straightforward way to back the hosts’ main attacking outlet in a game they should dominate.
Pathe Mboup 4+ shots10/3 (Ladbrokes)Pathe Mboup has had at least four shots in four of his six Ligue 1 appearances for Brest this season, 22 in total, and he has scored twice. He is Brest’s main attacking outlet and shoots from anywhere around the box, and Brest arrive in decent form after a 5-1 thrashing of Angers. Even if Lille control possession, Mboup should get chances on the counter. Ladbrokes offer 10/3 on him having four or more shots.

How Lille go into the game

Lille are flying, sitting second on 13 points after beating Le Havre 1-0 last time out, and they have kept four clean sheets in six games.

Anthony Eadson highlights a strong home record, with Lille unbeaten at the Pierre-Mauroy, where they have beaten Le Havre and Troyes and held PSG to a 2-2 draw.

How Brest go into the game

Brest arrive in good heart after thrashing Angers 5-1, a result that underlined their attacking threat, and they sit seventh on eight points with 12 goals to their name.

The visitors have blown hot and cold, though, winning two, drawing two and losing two, and they face a far sterner defensive test than the one Angers offered.

Lille vs Brest score prediction

Brest will carry a threat on the counter, but Lille’s defensive solidity and home form should see them through, and a clean-sheet win feels the natural outcome given how little they have conceded. Score prediction: Lille 2-0 Brest.
