Brest are yet to keep a single clean sheet in Ligue 1 this season, and that tells an important story about a side whose attacking performances have been better than their results might suggest.
They have scored seven goals and conceded eight in five league matches, with open contests against Le Mans, Toulouse, Le Havre and Auxerre.
Kamory Doumbia has been one of their main attacking threats, scoring four goals in the opening five rounds, and is once again expected to start behind Ludovic Ajorque.
Angers are less explosive going forward, but Amine Sbaï has contributed one goal and one assist and is also projected to feature in the starting XI.
