Both teams arrive with contrasting recent form – Auxerre have struggled to find the net, while Brest have been steady on the road. This clash pits a defensively porous home side against an away outfit that scores twice per game on average.

Robbo's Verdict

Strong
Stade Brestois 29 Draw No Bet Lost Strong · High safety

The model assigns Brest a 60.5% win chance and a 21.2% draw chance, meaning there’s an 81.7% chance they avoid defeat.

Show the maths
Auxerre’s xG of 1.0 versus Brest’s 2.0 creates a one‑goal differential that the model translates into a 60.5% win probability for Brest. Adding the 21.2% draw probability gives Brest an 81.7% chance of not losing. The BTTS probability of 54.6% and over‑2.5 goals probability of 57.7% further highlight the likelihood of goals, reinforcing Brest’s capacity to secure at least a draw.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes Won 54.6% model probability

With Auxerre averaging 1.0 expected goals and Stade Brestois 29 averaging 2.0, the model gives a 54.6% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 45.4% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Auxerre 1.0, Stade Brestois 29 2.0) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 54.6% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 45.4% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals Won 57.7% model probability

Combined expected goals of 3.0 (Auxerre 1.0 + Stade Brestois 29 2.0) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 57.7% chance against 42.3% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (Auxerre 1.0 + Stade Brestois 29 2.0 = 3.0 combined): 57.7% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 42.3% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Auxerre at 18.3%, the draw at 21.2%, and Stade Brestois 29 at 60.5% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 0-1 at 10.0% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Form Guide — Last 5

Auxerre

LLLW

Auxerre’s last five league games read LLLW, highlighted by a 2‑5 loss at Lens and a 1‑3 defeat to Angers, showing defensive frailties. Their sole win, a 1‑0 home triumph over Nice, hints at occasional solidity, but the broader form suggests they are unlikely to stop Brest scoring.

Stade Brestois 29

DDWL

Brest’s recent DDWL run includes two 2‑2 draws against Le Mans and Toulouse, followed by a 2‑1 away win at Le Havre and a narrow 0‑1 home loss to PSG. The draws and win demonstrate they can both score and hold on, supporting a non‑loss outcome.

Head-to-Head

Head‑to‑head is split – Auxerre won 3‑0 in March 2026, but Brest responded with 2‑0 victories in January 2026 and a 2‑2 draw in February 2025, indicating no clear dominance but favoring Brest’s recent form.
