Prediction: 2-1
Le Havre
Nice will be aiming to recover from a 4-1 loss to Olympique Lyon when they take on Le Havre on Matchday 14. Les Aiglons are a real force to be reckoned with at home and they are seen as hot favourites to win Saturday’s clash. Mohamed-Ali Cho is a major doubt after limping off with injury in the last league match, with Badredine Bouanani being ready to step up. The likes of Dante, Bard, Boga, Clauss, Abdi, Mendy, and Sanson continue to miss out with injuries.
Le Club Doyen, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Angers. Home win, though, should be considered as Le Havre have suffered four defeats in the previous five away games. Didier Digard’s men have been struggling in matches with top-table sides, especially on the road, which is yet another reason why we are going to place our bets on Nice. All Oussama Targhaline, Yann Kitala, Oualid El Hajjam, Arouna Sangante, and Andy Logbo miss out with injuries for the away team.
