Stade Brestois 29 – Le Mans

Stade Brestois 29, currently sitting seventh with five points from one win, two draws and a loss and an even six‑six goal tally, will host Le Mans, who occupy 14th place with three points after three stalemates and a defeat, having scored seven and conceded eight. The clash pits a side that has shown just enough attacking balance to keep pace with the league leaders against a team desperate for its first win and eager to tighten a leaky defence. Both clubs have yet to register a decisive head‑to‑head this season, so the encounter promises to be a pivotal test for Brest’s push for a top‑six finish and Le Mans’ fight to climb out of the relegation zone.
