Nice - Le Havre predictions

With the 1.58 being what they are, we don’t expect anything other than a home win. Pulling off anything else would be a gargantuan task for Le Havre, so we’d stay away unless you’re looking for a long shot on purpose.

From the current standpoint, the situation is obvious. Given the strength of Nice and the 6.58 odds given to Le Havre to win, it is easy to see that a win for the visiting team would be a stunning surprise.

Nice played away in the previous round, and their supporters can only be happy with the strong second-half performance. They were deemed favourites before kick-off but admittedly needed some time to get into gear. Once they started pulling ahead, though, they ended up recording a 1:3 win.

Le Havre are coming off from a decisive home victory against Strasbourg. At odds of 2.67 on a home win, few expected such a result – though Le Havre already established dominance in the first half.

The home team gives their opponents plenty of reasons to worry about the upcoming fixture. They’re on something of a streak with 5 goals scored over the last 3 matches.

Based on their recent performance, Le Havre’s largest issue seems to be defence, especially in away games. With 6 conceded goals in their 3 previous visiting matches, Over 3.5 Goals markets seem like a solid betting option.

This is the second time these two teams will clash as part of the current Ligue 1 season. Le Havre won the first time around, though it was a rather close victory and most bookies are expecting this match to end differently.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 2.06, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
