Stade Brestois take on ESTAC Troyes in the Coupe de France on Tuesday night, however, they will have to do so without influential midfielder Mahdi Camara, who is suspended for the tie.
He is one of multiple absentees for Brest, whilst Eric Roy is also expected to rotate his side for the encounter and rest some key players. Against a Troyes side fighting against relegation in Ligue 2, Brest may fancy their chances of qualifying for the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France, whilst giving the likes of Pierre Lees-Melou, Ludovic Ajorque, Romain Del Castillo, Abdallah Sima, and Brendan Chardonnet some rest time.
It is expected to be a much-changed side that take to the Stade de l’Aube and one likely captained by Hugo Magnetti. As well as Camara, Jordan Amavi, Bradley Locko, and Jonas Martin are all absent for Les Ty-Zéfs.
