Brest predicted XI v Montpellier: Ludovic Ajorque and Pierre Lees-Melou to settle for places on the bench | OneFootball

After another victory in the UEFA Champions League in midweek, Stade Brestois are set to rotate heavily as they take on rock-bottom Montpellier HSC at the Mosson.

In what is the final game before the international break, some key players will be rested, having featured prominently in this tight run of games. Notably, Lees-Melou, the key operator in midfield, and Ajorque, who had a hand in Brest’s second against Sparta Prague in midweek, will drop to the bench, as will captain Brendan Chardonnet, who signed a contract extension in midweek.

There are at least no fresh injury concerns for Eric Roy. Bradley Locko, who suffered an ACL injury just before the opening game of the season, is the only one out for Brest.
