Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
Stade Oceane will host Sunday’s Ligue 1 game between Le Havre and Montpellier, the two rock-bottom sides. Le Havre made a promising start to the season, beating both St Etienne and Auxerre, but they are on a six-game losing run ahead of the visit of Montpellier. As important winger Christopher Operi misses out through suspension, home win should not be considered. Midfielder Josue Casimir is banned for the match as well.
La Paillade, on the other hand, are on a four-game losing run in the French top flight, with the team conceding 14 goals in total in the last four Ligue 1 outings. As both Montpellier and Le Havre are desperate to get back on course in the national championship, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Both Stefan Dzodic and Teji Savanier are banned for the visitors.
Highlighted Player (Téji Savanier):
Born in Montpellier on December 22, 1991, Teji Savanier is a French footballer who plays for Nimes in the Ligue 1 as a midfielder. Savanier began his senior career at Arles-Avignon and it has to be noted that he played for the club from 2011 to 2015.
Ahead of the start of the 2015/2016 Ligue 2 campaign, Teji Savanier joined Nimes and he has been playing for the club ever since. The 171-cm tall midfielder has established himself as a first-team regular at Nimes and he successfully plays for the club in the French top flight. Savanier’s main position is central midfield, but he is used as an attacking midfielder as well. His preferred foot is right.
Despite producing fine performances for Nimes in all competitions, Teji Savanier has yet to receive a call-up for the French national football team. His contract with Nimes should expire on June 27, 2018.
