Angers vs. Le Havre: Match Prediction
Angers have collected 9 points in their last 5 home matches in Ligue 1 (3 wins, 2 losses), which is a decent result for a club fighting to stay in the league. This performance is linked to the increased scoring ability of Alexander Dujeux's team in recent matches, scoring at least twice in 4 of their last 5 home games in this tournament. During this period, the club even managed to score against the reigning champions, PSG (2-4).
Le Havre, on the other hand, cannot boast of a reliable defense. The club has conceded in 7 of their last 8 away matches in the championship, with opponents breaching their defense at least twice in 5 of those encounters. I anticipate that Le Havre will struggle to contain the hosts' attack in the upcoming match. My prediction: Angers Individual Total Over 1
