Le Havre - Strasbourg predictions

With the odds slightly in the hosts’ favour, they have a decent shot at walking away with 3 points. Still, Strasbourg can pull off both a win or a draw, so the hosts can’t afford to let their guard down.

The visiting team knows that beating Le Havre on their own turf will be a major accomplishment, and it is always a formidable challenge.

It’s fair to say Le Havre were not expected to return home from their previous league trip with anything more than their tail between their legs. However, a brave display saw them earn a colossal point (Paris Saint Germain) after they even had a first-time lead against a heavily favoured rival.

The away team were facing 2.27 odds to win the previous round of the Ligue 1. Things turned out about as expected, with them losing 1:3 on home ground. That said, it’s worth mentioning that they also managed to maintain a tie score for more than half the game.

Le Havre have a notably poor defensive record when it comes to playing as visitors. We’re mostly referring to the 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 away games. They are playing as hosts this time around, but you should be aware before you put down any money.

The most noteworthy bit of the away team’s recent records is that they scored more than 5 times during their latest 3 home games. The home-field advantage doesn’t translate into the match this Saturday, but their strikers are still fairly consistent.

The hosts could earn some points in this game, though it won’t be easy. Still, a victory would be quite welcome considering they have just 3 points separating them from the relegation zone. Especially since the end of the season is already in sight.

Though the odds are clearly in the hosts’ favour, the head-to-head history for this Ligue 1 clash tells a different story. Le Havre lost the last time these two teams met on the pitch, so an upset is definitely possible.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.70. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
