Best Odds and Predictions for Sochaux vs Le Havre
The big derby match is in the offing as the top two teams meet with all to play for, especially for the home team.
Under 2.5 Goals
When it comes to derby matches, especially in Ligue 2, there is going to be a small number of chances to get some goals while at the same time, the pressure will be high to get the job done. This was already shown in their recent match last month when Le Havre won by a single goal as the difference maker. Their previous three encounters as well had a fraction of the goals. It is interesting to notice the contrast between over/under games concerning these teams. Sochaux is the top team when it comes to over 2.5 goals matches while Le Havre is the best ‘under’ team in the league.
First Half Correct Score – 0-0
With the same sentiment in this prediction, with a low scoring game possibly in the offing, and the pressure that will come with this match, a predictably defensive game could be the way to go here. Sochaux has the best attack in the league, but Le Havre has the best defense, and it is like two football worlds colliding.
Draw
Le Havre would be more than happy to take a draw from this match. They have an eight-point advantage over Sochaux at the top of the rankings, and the team doesn’t have to chase a win. Sochaux is in a different situation, they are tied with Bordeaux at 39 points, and Metz and Grenoble are close behind with three points fewer than those two. The counterargument for this bet is that in the last ten matches Sochaux and Le Havre played against each other, there was not a single draw game. This season, Le Havre had eight of them, Sochaux only three.
Sochaux vs Le Havre Match Preview with Team News
Sochaux
With three wins in a row, Sochaux looks in a good form, especially with their forward line firing on all cylinders. They are the most efficient team in the league with 36 goals, but they are a team that has allowed 20 goals which is not a positive stat considering their ambitions. Ismael Aaneba is the only player injured for the home team.
Le Havre
The visitors have the most wins this season at 13, they also have the fewest losses with only one on the record. They also have eight draw games which suggests that they are more than capable of displaying a top defensive performance when they have to, and this is one of those games. Le Havre is the only team that has allowed a single-digit number of goals at nine. Gauthier Lloris and Abdelwahed Wahib are injured.
