Auxerre and Brest have met often recently, and they have always traded emphatic home wins. The last time Auxerre hosted Brest, in March, it ended 3-0 to Auxerre. This time the picture is different, because Auxerre have not started the season as well as they should have, while Brest have picked up points more consistently. Auxerre have just won 1-0 in their latest match, but before that they lost three in a row in the league by scorelines in which they conceded plenty of goals. The defence is clearly a problem. Brest, meanwhile, lost 0-1 in their latest match and have won only once in their last five, but they do not lose heavily. Their defence is tough enough. This game should turn into a midfield exchange, with neither side able to press the other for long spells. What to watch is how quickly Auxerre can settle at home. If they control the early rhythm, the game has a chance of ending without defeat.
