Stade Brestois is making its first trip to the Champions League. The Bretons face the Austrians Red Bull Salzburg on Tuesday October 1 (6:45 p.m.), who finished second in their championship last season. Accustomed to European games, the opponent is formidable, having qualified in the last five editions of the Champions League. However, RB Salzburg got off to a bad start to their 2024-25 campaign by suffering a heavy defeat in their first match against Sparta Prague (3-0).
Confident after an opening success, the Brestois must seize their chance. Although they encounter difficulties in the championship, the Pirates showed good offensive qualities against Sturm Graz for their first in C1. A second consecutive victory in the Champions League would bring them closer to qualification. Ludovic Ajorque’s teammates, Bayer Leverkusen, Sparta Prague and FC Barcelona, will then stand in the way.
