If Brest
and Nantes swim in the same waters in the championship, this 2024-25 season obviously does not have the same flavor for the Finistère club as for the Canaries. While Eric Roy’s team manages to limit the damage in Ligue 1 while living a daydream for its first participation in the Champions League, Antoine Kombouaré’s team is experiencing the start of the year under high tension.
Two crossed destinies which could a priori place Brest as the legitimate favorite of this Breton derby. But make no mistake: Eric Roy will have to deal with a real massacre. The Brest coach will have to do without Jonas Martin, Pierre Lees-Melou, Soumaïla Coulibaly, Julien Le Cardinal, Bradley Locko, Jordan Amavi and Massadio Haïdara. a boon for FC Nantes?
The expected compositions
Brest: Bizot – Zogbe, Chardonnet, Ndiaye, Lala – Magnetti, Fernandes, Faivre – Balde, Ajorque, Del Castillo.
Nantes: Lopes – Cozza, Pallois, Zeze, Amian – Castelletto – Simon, Augusto, Lepenant, Thomas – Abline.
