Marseille – Le Havre

Marseille will host Le Havre at the Orange Vélodrome in what promises to be a stark contrast between the two sides’ fortunes this season. Sitting ninth with nine points from three wins and four defeats, the home team have already scored 14 goals while conceding ten, a record that suggests they can still find the back of the net against a struggling opposition. Le Havre, languishing at the foot of the table in eighteenth place, have managed only two points from two draws and five losses, with a modest five goals scored and eleven let in. The disparity in form and goal difference makes the encounter a crucial test for Marseille to climb higher, while Le Havre will be desperate for a first win to lift them off the bottom.
