This defeat offers PSG the honorary title of autumn champion before their match in Lens in the evening (9 p.m.).

OM's place as runner-up is now under threat from Rennes (3rd to 1pt), which plays in Saint-Etienne on Sunday, and Nice (4th to 2 pts) which hosts Strasbourg, also on Sunday.

OM opened the scoring with Gerson (29th), then Brest scored twice with Romain Faivre (53rd) and Franck Honorat (71).

Brest is 6th.
