Match Facts
Brest and Bayer Leverkusen will meet for the first time – the German side’s last four major European games against French opponents have seen 23 goals scored (14 for, 9 against), with both sides scoring 2+ goals in every meeting (W3 L1).
Bayer Leverkusen have won one of their five away UEFA Champions League matches in France (D1 L3), beating Lyon in a first group stage encounter back in September 2001.
Brest have won both their games in the UEFA Champions League this season and could become the first French side to win their first three games in the European Cup/UEFA Champions League.
Bayer Leverkusen could win three successive games in the UEFA Champions League for the fifth time, with this potentially being the second time they’ve done so in their opening three games of a campaign since 2001-02, going on to reach that season’s final.
Bayer Leverkusen have kept a clean sheet in each of their last three matches in the UEFA Champions League. If they record a shutout against Brest here, it’ll be their longest ever run of clean sheets in the competition (4).
Only three sides have a lower PPDA in the UEFA Champions League this season than Brest (8.6), while only four sides have created more big chances than the French side’s eight.
The longest passing sequence by a team in the opening two matchdays of this season’s UEFA Champions League came in Bayer Leverkusen’s last game (versus Milan). At 1-0 up in the second half, Xabi Alonso’s side put together a sequence of 49 uninterrupted passes, which involved all 11 players and lasted for over two minutes (134 seconds).
Two of three Abdallah Sima’s goals for Brest in the UEFA Champions League this season have been assisted by Ludovic Ajorque, while across the first two matchdays, they were the only teammate duo to combine for multiple goals in the competition this term (both Ajorque assists for Sima).
Based on the quality of shots on target faced (excl. own goals), Brest’s Marco Bizot prevented more goals than any other goalkeeper through the opening two rounds of this season’s UEFA Champions League (3.1 – none conceded from 3.1 xG on target faced).
Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Aleix García completed all 54 of his passes in their win over Milan on MD2. Indeed, this was the most completed on record (2003-04) by a player to maintain a 100% pass completion rate on their first UEFA Champions League start.
