Le Havre Team News: Kuzyayev still a doubt
Russia international attacking midfielder Daler Kuzyayev is a doubt for this weekend as he deals with an ankle issue, which is the same for both Yann Kitala and Samuel Grandsir. Abdoulaye Toure is a definite absentee alongside Daren Mosengo and Andy Logbo.

Angers vs Le Havre Prediction
Angers come into this one on the back of a slender 1-0 defeat to Lens at Stade Bollaert-Delelis in their most recent outing last weekend due to a second-half strike by Poland international Przemyslaw Frankowski. The home team had enjoyed five successive victories across all competitions before that defeat. Le Havre boss Didier Digard remains in charge but the former Middlesbrough midfielder is under pressure as they sit rock-bottom in the Ligue 1 table with their 1-0 defeat at home to Stade Brest last weekend meaning they are now winless in their last eight matches across all competitions. A low-scoring Angers victory is to be expected for this one, especially with their home advantage.
