Team News

Le Havre
Metz
  • Luka Elsner will have to be creative given all of his suspended players are likely starters.
  • Mohamed Bayo will lead the line, while Oualid El Hajjam could play as a makeshift left wingback.
  • Gautier Lloris remains a doubt with a hamstring issue.
  • There's no reason to think Les Grenats will make wholesale changes after a win against Lens last weekend.
  • Lamine Camara was surprisingly dropped against Lens and may struggle to regain his place here with N'Doram fit.

Prediction

  • After a gritty win against Lens, Metz -- particularly the in-form Mikautadze -- should approach this match against a depleted Le Havre side with confidence.
  • The hosts will have to shake off a stoppage time loss to Nantes last weekend and respond with a result -- a draw will keep them above the drop, but a win could haul them back above Les Canaris, as many as five points clear.
