Saint-Etienne continue their fight to avoid the drop in Ligue 1 when Brest make the journey to the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard on Saturday afternoon.
The hosts capitulated in a 6-2 loss to Lorient in gameweek 31, while Michel Der Zakarian's side managed to hold Breton rivals Nantes to a 1-1 draw.
We say: Saint-Etienne 3-2 Brest
Low-scoring affairs have not been on the menu for Saint-Etienne recently, and they should fancy their chances against a Brest side who just cannot keep the back door shut away from home, especially with Khazri back and raring to go.
Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Seventh meets eighth in Saturday evening's Ligue 1 showdown at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy, as Lille take on fellow European outsiders Lens.
The champions rescued a point in a 1-1 draw with Angers last time out, while Franck Haise witnessed his side teach Nice a footballing lesson in a 3-0 thumping.
We say: Lille 1-1 Lens
Lille have been solid but not spectacular amid their unbeaten run, and the champions are unlikely to be blowing many teams away while David and Yilmaz fail to fire.
Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
