Brest can match their longest winning run in Ligue 1 from a season ago when they host Strasbourg on Thursday at Stade Francis-Le Ble.
Over the weekend, Stade Brestois defeated Clermont 3-0, moving up to seventh in the table with their second successive domestic triumph, while Le Racing are just a point above the relegation playoff line, losing 2-0 to Reims on Friday.
With a combined six goals in their previous two domestic affairs, Les Pirates have netted as many times as they had in their nine matches combined before that.
Their 3-0 victory on Sunday was the first three-goal triumph for this side since January 2023 when they defeated Angers 4-0, while they also recorded their third clean sheet of the new season the last time out, and their third at home.
In his first full season as manager, Eric Roy has guided this team to 21 points after 13 matchdays, their second-best start to a top-flight campaign (22 points in 2010-11).
