Le Havre vs Lille prediction
Didier Digard has helped Le Havre ease away from relegation, both last season and this, with a focus on a more proactive and entertaining style of football. They are in the bottom-half but well clear of the danger zone, having had a four-match winless run of form ended by a 3-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain last week.
They now face a Lille side that are one of the more entertaining teams in Europe with Bruno Genesio’s 13 games in Ligue 1 having consisted of 44 goals. They are inconsistent, albeit fun, most recently defeating Paris by four goals to two at Stade Pierre-Mauroy after the November international break.
Lille are very entertaining and they face an unusually proactive French struggler and so a fun watch for the neutral in which Lille remain favourites seems the way to go for this one.
