Le Havre look great in this season, showing quite decent results. As a result, at the moment the club sits on the seventh position in the Ligue 2 table with 44 points taken after 27 rounds behind. “Les Ciel et Marine” can boast with a powerful and dangerous offense which has scored 36 goals, however, their defense also feels perfectly well with only 24 goals conceded. In the previous battles conducted on the road Le Havre have been beaten by Sochaux 2:3, Orleans 1:2 and got 1:1 draw against Valenciennes.
Lorient have not failed against Le Havre across six latest head-to-heads played in face of their supporters. Both teams have slowed down recently and they are not in their best form now, thus, neither of them is likely to contend for a victory in the upcoming fight, still, it will be a home tackle for Lorient and this factor might help the club a bit.
Prediction for the match: Lorient to win.
