Brest will fancy their chances to return to the winning ways this Sunday when they travel to Stade Gabriel-Montpied for a clash against Clermont Foot in the 11th game week of the Bundesliga. Kickoffs at 16:00 EAT.

With five wins against four loses and two draws from their first 11 games, Clermont Foot are placed eight with 17 points. This season though, fortunes have changed drastically, and Clermont have had an excellent start when compared with their pre-season ambitions.

Clermont Foot shared the spoils 1-1 Ligue 1 with Monaco in their previous fixture. In that game, Clermont Foot had 66% possession, 21 shots with seven of them on target and a goal by Komnen Andrić (53′). Monaco got six shots with four of them on target and a goal by Breel Embolo (31′).

Sitting at the rock bottom of the table, Brest has suffered the heaviest defeat in the league so far this season, a 7-0 thrashing at the hands of Montpellier in front of their own support. It is the inability to hold onto a lead that has been a factor in the reason why Brest has lost 10 of their last 14 league matches.

Brest takes this trip off the back of 4-1 defeat at the hands of Nantes in their most recent encounter. In that game, Brest had 45% possession, 11 with two of them on target and a goal scored by Noah Fadiga (18′). Nantes got 17 shots with six of them on target and goals by Moses Simon (35′), Ignatius Ganago (36′), Mostafa Mohamed (71′) and Moussa Sissoko (88′).
