*Odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Stade Reims are coming off their biggest win of the season, defeating Monaco in the Coupe de France earlier this week. Although they have won two of their last four matches in all competitions, Luka Elsner's troops have no wins in their last six league games.
On the other hand, Le Havre are currently on a six-match losing streak. They also suffered 13 defeats in their last 15 games.
As it stands, Le Havre are in the relegation zone, five places behind 12th-placed Reims after the first half of the season.
Bearing that in mind, Reims are the expected winners at 4/6 (1.67). Teams with these odds usually have a 60% probability of winning.
