This is the Ligue 2 season opener for these teams, who are finally competing for points again. Will Le Havre or Guingamp get that important first win?
Le Havre form and stats
Last season, Le Havre's league statistics were 11 wins, 14 draws and 13 losses, resulting in a 12th position in the Ligue 2. Over these 38 matches they scored 38 goals and conceded 48. Playing at home last season Le Havre managed 4-8-7 (win-draw-lost) with 16 goals and 23 conceded.
This is expected to be a close game, with Havre perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Le Havre as a small favourite), we find 13 games. Le Havre has won four of these, drawn six and lost three.
With the first game of the season soon underway, it's time to look at the results from the Le Havre friendly games in pre-season: Le Havre played three friendlies, won 1, drew 1 and lost 1. If you are really into statistics you might appreciate knowing that Le Havre scored 3 goals and conceded 4 in these three games.
Guingamp form and stats
Let's have a look at how Guingamp performed last season in the Ligue 2: They landed a 9th position in the league table after playing out 10 victories, 17 draws and 11 defeats. In total they scored 41 and conceded 43 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 6 - drew 7 and lost 6 with 22/20 goals scored/conceded.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found ten similar matches played by Guingamp in our archives, and the results are: two wins for Guingamp, four draws and four defeats.
Guingamp played three friendlies in their break from official games, resulting in 0 victories, 2 draws and 1 defeat. In these three matches Guingamp scored 3 and conceded 4 goals.
