(Ligue 1 2023/2024): Highlights LOSC LILLE - BRESTOIS

Fourth place Brest were unbeaten in their last five games as they travelled north to face Palau Fonseca's Lielside. Former Tottenham midfielder Nabil Bentaleb was making his first start for Le Dog since returning to his hometown club over the summer. For the Bretons, Jones Martin was facing his old team as he stepped in for the suspended Manny Camera in midfield. Defender Lilian Brassier also out of action. Osgood found the net in each of their last 11 matches. We're looking to extend the league's longest run in that regard and kick off a busy month with a win. And it didn't take them long to do so. Ashraf Dari with a heavy touch allowing Ilanco-Bravo to nick the ball and the player maybe slightly mishit pass which was eventually shovelled home by Yusuf Yazici. Both of the Turks' goals this season have come within the first six minutes of play. He is the only player to have scored more than once in this time frame in the top flight this campaign. Dari starting his first match of the campaign with that costly heavy touch. Having waited almost two months for his second of the season he came close to adding a third within minutes. Breaking away from just inside his own half. Played a 1-2 with Ivan Caballero but this time couldn't find a way past the keeper. The hosts continued to push for a second. They arguably should have had one. Sweeping attacking move of Ilben Zagrova of Odi Diakite and Jonathan David ending with the Kosovan somehow side-footing over from close range. The press looked to level things up against the run of play before the break. Never really threatened Lucas Chevalier in the last goal. The Pirates had already won on four occasions this term. They only led in one of those encounters at the break. So reasons for optimism heading into the second 45. They could easily have been two down were it not for a tame finish from David. As the striker continues his search for a 100th club career goal. Neal with another nice move. David with a good first touch. With a finish not up to his usual standards. Sometimes those landmarks are difficult to tick off. There'll be another opportunity for the Canada International soon after. Again saved by the keeper. The press did get one gilt-edged chance to equalise. Martin Satriano having ended his long wait for a first goal of the season last time. Failed to find the net in back-to-back games. Perhaps will feel he should have tested Chevalier more thoroughly. Heading off target from close range. The win sees Fonseca's men go three league games unbeaten for the first time this season. The press will have a tough task to avenge this loss as they host the Champions PSG next Sunday.
