Le Havre – Lille preview: Latest form, news, and potential lineups
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for this duel, including our predicted Le Havre vs Lille lineups.
Le Havre
Newly promoted Le Havre are enjoying an impressive start to their first top-flight campaign in over a decade. The Dragons lost only once so far and they are unbeaten in the last 4 rounds (W2 D2). Conceded only 1 goal in those 4 games too and defensively the displays had been very good.
Last weekend Le Havre edged Clermont 2-1 at home with the display not dominant but very efficient.
There are 5 players currently in the treatment room but none of them starts much even when fit, so Le Havre are not very worried. Defender Nego is probably the only one of those used often and he is given a 50-50 chance to recover on time.
Predicted Lineup:
Demas (GK) Salmier, Sangante, Lloris, Operi, Toure, Sabbi, Kuzyayev, Kechta, Logbo & Alioui
Lille
Lille enjoyed huge dominance last Tuesday when they hosted Reims and yet somehow Les Dogues lost 1-2. Despite countless chances created and over 70% possession Lille struggled and this has been the story of their season so far.
The defeat stopped a 4-game unbeaten run and the results haven’t been all bad. That said Lille are yet to win on the road in the league (D2 L1).
The quartet of potential starters Umtiti, Djalo, Ounas and Bentaleb continues rehabilitation and none of them is expected back. Lille got used to playing without them though.
Predicted Lineup:
Chevalier (GK), Santos, Yoro, Alexsandro, Ismaily, Andre, Gomes, Yazici, Cabella, Haraldsson & David
Starting Lineups

Player to Watch: Nabil Alioui
Le Havre’s 24-year-old forward Nabil Alioui has never played in Ligue 1 before this season as he spent the previous 6 years in the lower divisions. Alioui has caught the eye big time so far though and he scored 4 goals in the first 6 rounds.
Alioui scored in Le Havre’s last 2 home games and we can see him getting involved in the action again this time around.
