Toulouse vs Le Havre Prediction: Beating Le Havre is not rocket science

Toulouse are back in action in the Ligue 1 after a rough couple of weeks. They face fellow strugglers Le Havre in the 11th match of the Ligue 1 season. They have struggled to win in their last 4 matches in all competitions and desperation is beginning to build in the team. Le Havre are also in need of a win after failing to win in their last 4 games. On the table, there’s nothing to separate both sides, as they both have 11 points from the opening 10 games.

Toulouse have won 2 matches, drawn 5, and lost 3 matches this season, and at the moment, they have failed to win their last 4 matches in all competitions. Games against Brest and Reims ended in a draw before they lost 5-1 to Liverpool in the UEFA Europa League. Then they returned to another defeat against Montpellier in their last match. After these results, Toulouse are ranked 12th, with 11 points and a goal difference of -2.

Montpellier are formidable at home this season as they are unbeaten in their 4 home league games. They won 1 of the 4 home games and drew the remaining 3. Toulouse will be feeling confident coming into this game because of their record against Le Havre. In their 10 meetings against each other, Toulouse have never lost to Le Havre. They won their previous meeting 4-0 on this ground.

Le Havre are playing against the odds in this game. They have failed to win any of their last 4 games in a row. They lost back-to-back games against LOSC Lille and Marseille, before playing a draw against Lens and Metz FC and both drawn games ended goalless. This leaves Le Havre in 13th spot on the table, with 11 points and a goal difference of -2 goals.

Le Havre’s away form is also very poor coming into this game, as they have failed to win any of their 5 away matches. They played 4 draws and then lost 1 game away from home. Le Havre will also have to deal with the fact that they have never beaten Toulouse in a competitive match before, not to mention away from home. But they will fight hard to avoid losing by a huge margin like they did when they faced Toulouse last season.

According to the head-to-head, Toulouse and Le Havre played 10 matches in the past. Toulouse won 6 of the 10 matches and they played a draw in 4 matches.

Toulouse have a chance to extend their dominance over Le Havre and this game couldn’t have come at a better time for them. Both clubs are in poor form no doubt, but Le Havre fail to find their feet while playing away from home.

From Analysis, Le Havre have failed to keep a clean sheet against Toulouse in 6 games in a row, while Toulouse have scored first in 4 of their last 5 matches against Le Havre, while also winning the first half in those games.
