Angers – Le Havre

Angers host Le Havre in what promises to be a pivotal encounter for both sides as the season reaches its midway point. The home side sit 11th with four points from one win, one draw and two defeats, having scored four and conceded five, while the visitors languish in 16th place with just two points from two goalless draws and two losses, their goal tally standing at two for and four against. Angers will be eager to consolidate their modest resurgence and climb out of the lower mid‑table, whereas Le Havre will need a win to keep any distant hopes of avoiding the relegation zone alive. Historically the two clubs have exchanged a handful of points in recent meetings, but the current form suggests Angers hold the slightest edge heading into the match. Both teams will be looking to turn their fortunes around before the winter break.
