Lorient head into the last game of the season full of confidence after a dominant 4-0 win over Metz and will be eager to finish the campaign in style in front of their home fans. Even though Le Havre are fighting hard to secure Ligue 1 survival, we predict a 2-1 home win. Olivier Pantaloni’s side have been fairly solid in recent weeks, losing only three of their last ten matches while averaging 1.40 goals scored per game. Les Merlus have also looked stronger at home, collecting 1.60 points per game across their previous five matches at Stade du Moustoir. Importantly, the hosts have no fresh injury concerns ahead of this encounter.
Le Havre, meanwhile, are under serious pressure as they continue their battle to avoid relegation. The visitors are winless in their last ten league matches, collecting just 0.60 points per game during that poor spell. Defensive issues remain a concern as well, with Le Havre failing to keep a clean sheet in any of their previous five away fixtures. Simon Ebonog is expected to return to the starting XI after being rested last time out. History suggests goals could be on the cards, with six of the last ten meetings producing over 2.5 goals.
As Le Havre are winless in their last ten matches, Home Win is our main betting tip for this Ligue 1 matchup, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (60% H2H).
This Ligue 1 match will be played on Sunday 17 May 2026 at 20:00.
