Match preview
Le Havre welcome Angers looking to reverse a sluggish start to their Ligue 1 campaign. The hosts sit 16th in the standings with just one point from their opening three matches, having lost both of their home fixtures against Monaco and Brest alongside an away draw against Lyon.
Angers occupy 12th place with three points from three matches. While they have faced tough home tests against Lille and Rennes, their sole away match delivered a decisive 3-1 victory at Auxerre, demonstrating their ability to produce results on the road.
The home side is also dealing with notable selection difficulties, missing several players due to injuries and suspension. With Angers carrying better offensive form away from home and enjoying an advantage in squad availability, this encounter presents a strong opportunity for the visitors to secure points.
