Sunday's clash between Brest and Lille seems unbalanced, given the statistics in the league. Brest team occupying 17th place in the standings, has 1 win in 8 games. Guests from Lille had five straight wins, but lost in their last match against Brest and definitely will try to stop any negative series.
Brest has one point more than Sochaux in the fight for survival in the group. Needless to say, winning the home game is a must for the team, but to win against Lille at the moment seems very difficult. Brest last victory as at home is back dated October 17, 2012, against Bastia 3-0. The team has a lot of defence issues that we saw in the last 4-0 defeat by Lorient.
Lille occupies the sixth position, and is now involved in the battle for a place in Europe. If it was not the last loss against Evian, the team would pass the fifth in the standings and players will be highly motivated to make up for the lost points. If Salomon Kalou scoring machine wakes up with the talent Dimitri Payet the attack will be unstoppable.
