Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
After failing to win the previous six league matches, Le Havre will look to return to winning ways in the Ligue 1 when they face Strasbourg on Matchday 32. Le Club Doyen did well to hold star-studded PSG to a 3-3 draw at the weekend, but their top flight status remains in danger. Le Havre are eager to escape the danger zone and you should know that they are eyeing their first league win since March 10, 2023. Both Loic Nego and Arouna Sangante are banned for the match.
Le Racing, on the other hand, aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to Lille and Nice. Strasbourg obviously suffered a dip in form and seeing that they are safe for now, home win should be considered. Habib Diarra is banned for the match, while both Angelo Gabriel and Lebo Mothiba are out of contention with injuries.
Highlighted Team (Strasbourg):
Founded back in 1906, Strasbourg is a professional football team that compete in French Ligue 1. Le Racing did remarkably well to win the 1979 Ligue 1 trophy and that is considered the biggest success in the history of the club. Strasbourg won Coupe de France on three occasions (1951, 1966, 2001) and they have three Coupe de la Ligue trophies as well (1964, 1997, 2005). Strasbourg’s main rivals are Metz and the two teams face each other in the Derby de l’Est (The Eastern derby).
Le Racing recorded their biggest victory over Valenciennes (10-0) in the 1937-1938 season, whilst they suffered their biggest loss to Limoges (0-8) in the 1959/1960 season. Paraguayan goalkeeper Jose Luis Chilavert, who is well known for his free-kick abilities, played for the club from 2000 to 2003, but he failed to score in a league match during his spell with the Stade de la Meinau outfit. Speaking of Stade de la Meinau, Strasbourg’s home ground was opened back in 1914 and the capacity of the venue is 29,320.
