Le Havre – Stade Brestois 29

Le Havre’s home loss to Stade Brestois 29, 1‑2, leaves the Normandy side stranded in 16th place with just two points from four matches, still winless and with a meagre –2 goal difference. Brest, meanwhile, climb to seventh in the table, having collected five points after one victory, two draws and a single defeat, their goal balance even at six each. The result also tipped the head‑to‑head balance this season in Brest’s favour, as they are now the only side to have beaten Le Havre in their two encounters. With the season still in its early stages, the three‑point swing further widens the gap between the relegation‑watching Harvards and the mid‑table challengers.
