Command Analysis

Le Havre

Current form
Le Havre is showing terrible results, but the club management does not dare to make changes and trusts Didier Digard to improve the situation in the standings. At the moment, after 16 matches played, the team is in the penultimate place in the standings, having 12 points in its bank. The club has the worst attack line - only 12 goals scored, and one of the worst defense lines - 34 conceded. Only Montpellier and Saint-Etienne have taken the ball out of their net more.
Disqualifications and injuries
Sumar, Kitala and Kasimi are injured and will not take to the field.
Interesting trends for betting
- Le Havre has lost its last five matches
- The hosts have failed to keep a clean sheet in eight of their last ten meetings.
- Le Havre haven't even scored in five of their last seven matches
Estimated line-up: Desma - Sangante, Lloris, Salmier - Nego, Targallin, Toure, Kehta, Zouaoui - Husni, Ayew.

Lens

Current form
Lens clearly cannot put the beginning of the new year in the piggy bank. First, the team was knocked out of the French Cup, losing to PSG in a penalty shootout, and in the last round of the French Ligue 1 there was a defeat to Toulouse (0:1). Thus, in the national championship the club cannot win two games in a row. This forced them to leave the European Cup zone, and at the moment the team is in seventh place in the standings, three points behind the sixth line. The upcoming opponent is an excellent opportunity to break the losing streak and at least get closer to the top six, and in certain situations, break into it again. The main thing is to go out on the field fully charged and not underestimate the opponent.
Disqualifications and injuries
Lascaris, Aguilar, Satriano and Chavez are injured, while Costa is suspended.
Interesting trends for betting
- Lens have scored in six of their last seven away games
- The visitors have conceded in the last three matches
- Lance winless streak stretches to three games in a row
Estimated line-up: Koffi - Frankovski, Danso, Khusanov, Medina - Thomasson, Diouf - Sotoka, Fulgini, Zaruri - Nzola.

1.85Tip and bets
If we look at the last head-to-head encounters, we will see that in the last two games there was no winner, but at the moment Le Havre is showing terrible football, and, of course, the bloody-golden will make every effort to take advantage of this. It is possible that the visitors will win a confident victory, but we will not take such a risk and will bet on a simple victory of a stronger (at the moment) team.
Our prediction is Lance victory with odds of 1.67
Bet on total
Lens will definitely come out strongly charged for the upcoming match, because the team lost points in the last two matches. Le Havre, having lost to Marseille with a score of 1:5 in the last round, confirmed the assumption that a miracle will not happen in the new year and the club will not play at a different level. The heavenly ones were able to score a goal of prestige in that match only in the 85th minute, when the Provencals were leading with a score of 5:0. We are inclined to think that the strongly motivated Lens will not be able to score even on their home field.
Our prediction is that at least one will not score with odds of 1.79
Bet on corners
If the meeting goes according to the scenario we described above, then in the upcoming match we will see a big advantage for the guests. We will make another bet on their victory in the corners.
Our prediction is Lens will take more corners with odds of 1.60
