Brest - Lyon
Brest and Lyon seek consistency at Stade Francis le Ble
Can Brest maintain their momentum as they host Lyon at Stade Francis le Ble on 8 November 2026 for this Ligue 1 matchday 10 clash? The home side looks to build on their recent 2-0 victory over Lorient, relying on an expected XI led by Ludovic Ajorque and Pathe Mboup. With Raphael Le Guen sidelined, the defensive unit featuring Bradley Locko and Kenny Lala faces a stern test against an attacking Lyon setup. The visitors, expected to field Corentin Tolisso and Julien Duranville, arrive with a depleted squad due to multiple injuries, including Ernest Nuamah and Moussa Niakhate.
Lyon enters the contest following a midweek draw against Real Sociedad, looking to replicate their domestic win over Angers. Their form has been inconsistent, marked by a recent loss to Paris Saint-Germain. Historically, these encounters remain tight, often decided by narrow margins.
