⚽ Ligue 1 - Round 6 Preview

📅 28 Sep 2024

⏰ 18:00 GMT +1

🏟 Stade Océane (Le Havre)

Le Havre will aim for their first victory over Lille since February 1996, having drawn three and lost five encounters since then. Their most recent H2H clash ended in a 2-0 defeat last season, extending their losing streak to five matches in which they’ve only scored one goal. Despite being underdogs, this fixture could still offer entertainment, as Le Havre’s two home games this season have produced nine goals. Their last four home matches have seen both teams score, adding to the anticipation for this contest.

Le Havre’s form has been mixed, suffering back-to-back away losses to Toulouse (2-0) and Monaco (3-1), but they’ve also managed to secure two wins from their opening five Ligue 1 games—the first time they’ve achieved this feat since the 1991/92 season. Despite the recent setbacks, manager Didier Digard remained optimistic after their defeat to Monaco, highlighting the “positives” from the performance, aside from the result.

Lille, on the other hand, have endured a tough period, with four consecutive defeats across all competitions. However, they halted that slump with a dramatic 84th-minute equalizer in a six-goal thriller against Strasbourg last weekend. This point leaves Lille in ninth place, just two points off the fourth position they held at the end of last season. Lille’s busier schedule, thanks to their involvement in the UEFA Champions League, could play a role, as they’ve already competed in ten matches this season, double the number played by Le Havre.
