The historical head-to-head between Brest and Toulouse reflects a closely contested rivalry. Across 16 competitive meetings, Brest have won 6, Toulouse 5, and 5 have ended in draws. In recent seasons, Brest have dominated this fixture, beating Toulouse three times in the last four direct meetings. However, they did lose the reverse fixture this season, failing to score in a 2-0 defeat back in August.
Brest team overview
Brest’s 2025/26 campaign has been characterised by mixed results, though they have shown resilience and attacking threat, particularly at home. Over their last six Ligue 1 matches, Brest have recorded four wins and suffered two defeats; a 2-0 victory over Auxerre on the opening weekend of the new year was followed by a 2-1 defeat to Olympique Lyonnais.
At Stade Francis-Le Blé, Brest’s form has been more consistent, with multiple wins secured and an average of two goals scored per home match in recent fixtures, highlighting their control and comfort in front of their own supporters. Their recent home form has been particularly impressive, with three consecutive victories in recent weeks, while the last time they failed to avoid defeat at home was nearly three months ago, when they slumped to a 3-0 loss against PSG.
Winger Romain Del Castillo was sent off in last week’s fixture against Olympique Lyonnais and will serve at least a one-match suspension.

Toulouse team overview
Toulouse approach this fixture with solid recent form and good on-field chemistry. In their last six league outings, they have recorded three wins, one draw and two defeats, with their most recent victory being particularly impressive - a 5-1 thrashing of Nice. However, inconsistency remains the main factor preventing Toulouse from mounting a sustained challenge for the European places; for example, they suffered a heavy 3-0 defeat to league leaders Lens prior to that emphatic win over Nice.
Toulouse’s recent away form further underlines their competitiveness, having lost only once in their last five away league matches, suggesting they can cope with the demands of Ligue 1 travel.
Injury and availability issues have affected the squad at times, but overall Toulouse have demonstrated adequate depth through effective rotation. Centre-forward Emersonn remains unavailable, however, as he continues to serve a suspension following his dismissal in the 3-0 defeat to Lens.

Prediction
Given the recent trends, this clash appears likely to be closely contested with both sides capable of scoring but neither defence sufficiently solid to shut out quality attacks. Brest’s recent home comfort and the tendency for their matches to produce multiple goals point toward them challenging Toulouse strongly, while Toulouse’s unbeaten recent away record and attacking efficiency signal they will be difficult to contain in front of goal.
Prediction: Both Teams to Score (BTTS).
Three reasons we expect BTTS
- Toulouse have scored in three consecutive Ligue 1 away fixtures.
- Brest have found the net in three successive Ligue 1 home matches.
- BTTS has landed in Toulouse’s last three away matches.
