15th Round of France’s Ligue 1: Brest vs Monaco
Match Time: December 5, 2025, 9:00 PM (Local Time)

Brest will face Monaco in the 15th round of Ligue 1. The visitors, ambitious yet inconsistent this season, are expected to aim for nothing less than victory.

Our Prediction for Brest vs Monaco

The club from Stade de Roudourou made its Champions League debut last season and impressively reached the playoffs. Domestically, however, they naturally dropped to mid-table, finishing ninth. Now even that position seems out of reach, with Brest fighting to avoid the relegation zone. Wins have been rare—aside from two consecutive victories at the end of September—and half of their league matches have ended in defeat. Still, they have recently found a spark of form, beating Metz and Strasbourg in their last two games.

Monaco, meanwhile, previously coached by Adi Hütter for two seasons, finished second and then third in Ligue 1. But after a weak start to this campaign, he was replaced by Sébastien Pocognoli in October. The change has not produced immediate improvement: in November, Monaco lost all their Ligue 1 matches, including a heavy 1–4 defeat to Rennes. However, the most recent round brought a surprising 1–0 victory over PSG. In the Champions League, they have shown signs of progress as well, defeating Bodø/Glimt, although they could only manage a 2–2 draw against Pafos.

Éric Roy’s Brest side scores an average of 1.36 goals per match and concedes 1.71.
Monaco averages 1.86 goals scored and 1.79 conceded per match.
