Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Le Havre in 11th and Châteauroux in 13th place.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Le Havre form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Le Havre's two home games in the Ligue 2 so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Stade Océane.
Havre are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-3 away versus Paris. Before that match, a win away at Nancy.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Le Havre at home in the league. 1 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Châteauroux form and stats
Things could have gone better for Châteauroux in their Ligue 2 away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Châteauroux are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
Châteauroux are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the Ligue 2 against Niort (placed 5th). Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Chambly's place.
The attacking power of Châteauroux when travelling is not overwhelming with 2 goals scored from 3 league matches away. Châteauroux have conceded 3 goals in these away matches.
