Le Havre vs Olympique Lyonnais Prediction & Preview
Preview
Le Havre welcomes Olympique Lyonnais to Stade Océane on Sunday, October 20th, in the 8th round of Ligue 1. Le Havre coach Didier Digard will be looking to turn his team's fortunes around after a disappointing run of form, while Olympique Lyonnais coach Pierre Sage will aim to build on his side's recent successes.
Le Havre currently sits 15th in the league with just 6 points from their opening 7 matches. Their last outing saw them lose 2-0 away to Brest at Stade Francis-Le Ble. In contrast, Olympique Lyonnais is 8th with 10 points and comes into this match on the back of a convincing 2-0 win over Nantes at home.
When these two teams met previously on January 14th, 2024, at Stade Océane, Le Havre emerged victorious with a 3-1 scoreline. However, their recent form has been concerning, with just one win in their last five matches. Olympique Lyonnais, on the other hand, has won three of their last five games and will be looking to capitalize on Le Havre's struggles.
Le Havre averages just 1 goal per game, while conceding an average of 2.14 goals. At home, they score slightly more (1.33 goals) but also concede more (2.67 goals). Olympique Lyonnais scores an impressive 2.29 goals per game and concedes only 1.14 goals on average.
Bet
Considering the teams' recent form, performance, and goal-scoring statistics, I would recommend betting on an Away Win for Olympique Lyonnais at odds of 1.95. While Le Havre has a slight advantage in their head-to-head record, Olympique Lyonnais's superior form and goal-scoring ability make them the more likely winners.
The odds of 1.95 offer reasonable value considering the team's recent performances, and I believe they have a good chance of securing an away win against a struggling Le Havre side.
