Last season, the “Pirates” pleasantly surprised everyone by finishing third in the French championship and earning a spot in the Champions League. This was Brest’s best result in history, but replicating their previous Ligue 1 success will be very challenging, as shown by their results in the opening rounds of the new season.
Last weekend, Brest traveled to the capital, where they lost 1-3 to French champions PSG. This was the third defeat in four opening rounds for Éric Roy’s team. The only points they managed to earn were in a home game against Saint-Étienne, where the “Pirates” scored four unanswered goals. Currently, Brest sits in 14th place, only ahead of the relegation zone teams due to goal difference.
The Austrian club broke Salzburg’s dominance in last season’s Austrian Bundesliga and sensationally claimed the gold medals. Sturm finished just two points ahead of the “Bulls,” allowing them to skip the Champions League qualification stage. It’s worth noting that the Austrian champions head into the European competitions in great form, having won six consecutive matches across all tournaments.
Sturm leads the Austrian championship, but the gap from their competitors is minimal—just two points. The team has yet to face Austria’s top club, Salzburg. Sturm’s last league match took place at the end of August, where they defeated Tirol 4-2. Additionally, they advanced through two rounds of the Austrian Cup, beating Krems after extra time and Ried.
