Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will entertain Brest at the Parc des Princes in the Coupe de France round of 16 on Wednesday.

The visitors booked their place in the round of 16 of the competition with a comeback 2-1 win over Trelissac, thanks to goals from Kenny Lala and Martín Satriano.

PSG vs Brest Prediction

Les Parisiens are unbeaten in their last 14 games across all competitions and have won five of their six games in 2024 thus far. They are unbeaten in all competitions since 1985 against their western rivals. They have recorded 14 wins in their last 15 games in this fixture.

Ousmane Dembélé and Manuel Ugarte are back in training from their injuries, while Achraf Hakimi is also in contention to start. Head coach Luis Enrique won't be able to count on the services of Randal Kolo Muani due to an illness, while Lucas Hernandez is suspended for the match.

Les Pirates are unbeaten in their last 11 games across all competitions, keeping seven clean sheets. They scored twice for the first time in their away meeting against the hosts since 1981 in their league meeting last month, playing a 2-2 draw, and will look to build on that form. They have scored at least twice in four of their last five away games.

Pierre Lees-Melou is suspended in this match, while Jérémy Le Douaron is struggling with a thigh injury. Nonetheless, head coach Éric Roy should welcome back Kamory Doumbia, who has returned from the 2023 AFCON.

Considering the current form of the two teams, the match is expected to be contested closely, but the home advantage for PSG should do the trick for them to eke out a narrow win.
