Le Havre will hope to stay above the Ligue 1 relegation zone when they welcome fellow strugglers Metz this Sunday. Two points separate the teams, Le Havre in 15th place with 28 and Metz, 17th on 26 points. Le Havre will go into the weekend just two points above Lorient who are in the relegation playoff position. With Lorient playing two days earlier, Le Havre might start this game in the drop zone. Their recent results should send jitters, the team having failed to win any of the last four matches. From a possible 12 points in their last four matches, Le Havre managed just a point. In light of their current position and the stakes, Le Havre will know they have no room for error. They must improve on their current run of just a win in the last 12 matches in all competitions. With matches against PSG, Nice and Marseille coming up later in the season, Le Havre can’t afford to drop points against direct opponents. Five of their six wins in the league this season came at home, thus they’ll be positive going to this encounter. Le Havre will also bank hopes on the fact that they are unbeaten in the last seven meetings with Metz.
The first meeting of the season between these two ended in a 0-0 draw. That was the second straight draw between the two sides and Metz will come here seeking a first win in eight against Le Havre. In the previous seven, they suffered three defeats, and failed to score in four. Clearly, this isn’t a game Metz would have wished for at the moment, but they badly need the points. A win here will, at least, lift Metz from the automatic relegation positions. It could even see them leap out of the bottom three altogether, and that there is all the motivation they need. Three wins in their last six matches have really boosted Metz’s hopes and they will feel they have it in them to seal survival. The most recent of those came in their last game, beating Lens 2-1 with an impressive first-half comeback. Georges Mikautadze was once again the main man with a brace to deliver the win. The Georgia forward has now scored seven times in the last seven matches.

Our Le Havre vs Metz Prediction
Le Havre are coming into this game having dominated the fixture. However, their recent form has comparatively been poorer. Metz, though playing away from home, will feel they are favorites here. They’ve been scoring more lately, and have stood up against the big guns in Ligue 1. The scales are slightly tipped towards the visitors coming into this game. Our prediction for Le Havre v Metz is therefore for Metz to win.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
