Brest Form
Brest extended their unbeaten run to three matches with a 1-1 derby draw against Rennes at Stade du Roudourou on Saturday. Jota's late goal denied Les Pirates a third successive victory.
Eric Roy's side have enjoyed a strong run of results in the past month, with four wins and only one defeat recorded in their last six matches.
The Champions League debutants have impressed in their maiden campaign at Europe's top table. Brest won both of their first two fixtures, including a superb 4-0 victory at Salzburg.
Brest Team News
Brest boss Roy has a few injury concerns this week. Abdallah Sima missed the derby against Rennes due to a hamstring injury, while full-back Bradley Locko remains sidelined with a ruptured Achilles tendon.
Julien Le Cardinal is also expected to miss out for the home side.
Bayer Leverkusen Form
Leverkusen make the trip to France after a vital 2-1 Bundesliga win against Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday. Nigerian forward Victor Boniface's seventh goal of the season secured a hard-fought victory for the Bundesliga champions.
Xabi Alonso's side are unbeaten in seven matches (W5, D2) since a 3-2 reversal against RB Leipzig at the end of August.
Die Werkself have made a fine start to their Champions League game with six points collected from their opening matches against Feyenoord (4-0) and AC Milan (1-0).
Bayer Leverkusen Team News
Bayer boss Alonso has a strong squad available ahead of the trip to France. Florian Wirtz is likely to return to the first XI after a substitute appearance against Eintracht.
Nigerian forward Victor Boniface's participation is in doubt after he was involved in a serious car accident on Sunday.
