PSG:Les Parisiens started 2022 with an easy win over Vannes OC before a draw with Olympique Lyonnais in Ligue 1. With Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League just over a month away, PSG need to start putting some form together. Brest might not be the best indicator of form, but they were recently reeling off six consecutive wins and should not be taken lightly.
SB29:Without a win in three in Ligue 1, Michel Der Zakarian will be keen to get his players back to winning ways but will also recognize that Paris is not the ideal place to do that. Instead, an encouraging display here could build up enough confidence to get back to form at home to Lille. Besides, it depends on PSG's mood and how generous they are willing to be.
Prediction
The hosts should win this one quite comfortably. However, that has been said a few times recently and those games ended up being closer than expected. This one could also be a slow burner with Brest only succumbing to Parisien strength late on.Pick: PSG 2-0 S-B29.
