Le Havre vs Clermont lineups and latest team news
Le Havre
Le Havre showed very good defending last weekend when able to earn a slightly fortunate 0-0 draw on their visit to Lyon. Le Havre faced 23 shot attempts in this match, while they never registered a shot on target. Still, the dedicated and organised display impressed.
Le Havre’s first top-flight season in 14 years starts well and despite winning only once the newcomers have also lost only once in 5 rounds and this is a solid base to build on.
There are no major injury issues in the squad. That said Confais and Diawara have been absent from the midfield all season and they are not expected to feature again as they still train individually.
Predicted Lineup – Desmas (GK), Lloris, Operi, Sangante, Nego, Toure, Kuzyaev, Ndiaye, Alioui, Soumare & Gransdir
Clermont
Clermont have made an awful start to the season and they sit in the bottom 2 with a single point from 5 games. Last time around another toothless showing saw the Lancers lose 0-1 at home against fellow strugglers Nantes.
Clermont are yet to keep a clean sheet this season. At the same time, their forward actions have been underwhelming and they failed to score in 3 of the last 4 rounds.
There is some hope that defensively things can improve as the star centre-back Caufriez is fully fit again and ready to start. Rashani and Berkani remain doubtful though and this restricts the options on the flanks.
Predicted Lineup – Diaf (GK), Zeffane, Ogier, Caufriez, Neto, Gonalons, Magnin, Allevinah, Cham, Bela & Kyei
