BRT vs MAR Dream11 Prediction: Last season’s Ligue 1 runners-up Marseille begin their 2020-21 league campaign with a trip to a Brest side who were thrashed 4-0 by Nimes in their opener last week so the visitors will certainly feel that they should be kicking things off with a win. Although it is very early stages, Brest struggled to compete in all areas of the pitch last week and that does not bode well for them in this match against a talented Marseille side who will be hoping to push PSG close this season, along with the rest of the chasing pack. Andre Villas-Boas’ side should have too much for the hosts here so an away win is on the cards for them.

Brest Team News
Brest are bottom of the league, in truth at this time it doesn’t matter just yet after 1 game. The fact Brest are bottom is because they lost their first game of the season, 4-0 to Nimes. It was a shocking start to the season but that could be forgotten if they get even a point in this game. Brest had a decent last season but it faded away as it went on. The major plus point for the club was that they performed well at home and got many points here, in the end that saved the club from any danger of relegation.
Injury update, unavailability
Brest will be without Chardonnet due to suspension. Christophe Harelle is out after picking up an injury.
BRT Playing 11 & Subs (probable)
Larsonneur; Pierre-Gabriel, M’Bock, Duverne, Perraud, Honorat, Diallo, Battocchio, Tavares, Cardona, Charbonnier
Marseille Team News
Marseille want to fight the league title from PSG, it seems like a big ask but this is really their objective this season. This is the clubs first game of the season as they didn’t play last weekend. This is where their adventure starts. The club have not spent big so far but have brought in the likes of Alvaro Gonzalez from Villarreal and Pape Gueye from Watford. L’OM had some very big wins in pre-season scoring 11 goals in just two games although the opposition was quite poor. Their last pre-season game ended in a 1-0 win over Nimes.
Injury update, unavailability
They will be sweating on the fitness of Dimitri Payet due to injury issue.
MAR Playing 11 & Subs (probable)
Pele; Amavi, Kamara, Caleta-Carr, Sakai, Sanson, Strootman, Khaoui; Radonjic, Benedetto, Thauvin
