Lyon are not among the major Ligue 1 teams for the last few seasons. However, with 11 left, they are only five points behind the top four positions that could bring them the Champions League next year. Lyon didn't impress in 2025, as they won only two of the last ten matches in all competitions. Last weekend, Paulo Fonseca's team lost 3-2 at home against PSG. The home side was competitive in most of the game, but eventually, the guests once again proved that they are the best team in France.
After the last phenomenal season and third position in the league, Brest returned to their more natural mid-table position. Brest still have a chance to play in one of the European competitions next season, but they will need much better form than their recent. Brest are without a win in the last five matches. In the previous game, they lost 3-2 at home in the cup against Dunkerque. The fans surely expected more against the Ligue 2 team, but that was another subpar performance.
Lyon vs Brest pick: Over 2.5 goals
Lyon scored 12 goals in the last four matches. On the other hand, Brest allowed 15 goals in the previous five games. We should expect at least three goals in the upcoming tie in Lyon.

Lyon team news
The last two months in Lyon were unimpressive, but maybe the appointment of Paulo Fonseca would be the solution for the club. In the first four games as Lyon's head coach, the club recorded two wins and two defeats.
Lyon should have the whole team available for Sunday's game against Brest.
