Head-to-head statistics Auxerre - Havre
Auxerre Team Overview
⚪️ With just three rounds left in the season, Auxerre sit in 10th place and are almost certain to finish between 9th and 11th. The "Burgundians" have been playing with such freedom, unburdened by the pressure of results, that they've delivered three consecutive matches with over 3.5 total goals against strong opponents, including a resounding away victory over Lens in the last round.

Havre Team Overview
🔵 In the previous round, Le Havre heroically secured a point against Ligue 1 giants Monaco (1-1). Now, Didier Digard's team are just one point ahead of Saint-Étienne, who sit in the relegation zone. The "Dark Blues" find themselves in the relegation playoff zone, trailing the safe 15th spot by two points. However, their remaining fixture list doesn't inspire much confidence. After traveling to Auxerre, they will host Marseille at home and then head to Strasbourg. Given these challenges, Le Havre need to defeat the "Burgundians" in the upcoming match.

Havre
🔝 Following their 1-1 draw with Monaco, Le Havre even had a player named in the Team of the Week for Matchday 31. That player is central defender Gautier Lloris.
❌ Gautier Lloris, the standout from the last match, is doubtful for the upcoming game. The team will also be without long-term injured forwards Eliesse Logbo and Yann Kitala, as well as backup striker Ilyes Housni due to a recent injury.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
The main referee for this match is Jérémy Pignard, who has officiated 16 Ligue 1 games this season. He was in charge of Auxerre's home game against PSG (2:1 in yellow cards) and two away matches for Le Havre - against Angers (4:2 in favor of Le Havre on yellows and 1:1 on reds) and Lens (2:2 in yellow cards).
This season, Pignard averages 4.4 yellow cards per match (2.1 to the home team and 2.3 to the visitors). In Auxerre's home games, an average of 3.2 yellow cards are shown (1.8 to the hosts and 1.4 to the guests). In Le Havre's away matches, the average is 2.9 yellow cards (1.6 to the home team and 1.3 to the visitors).
Considering all the stats and head-to-head history, a reasonable bet would be on Auxerre's individual total of yellow cards over (1.5). For those willing to take a bit of a risk, you might opt for total yellow cards in the first half over (1.5).
⚽️ Goal Prediction
Given Auxerre's relaxed form, the recent head-to-head encounters, and Le Havre's results in their last matches (8 out of 11 games with a total over 2.5), we suggest betting on total goals over 2.5 in the match.
🚩 Corner Prediction
In their first-round head-to-head, the corner count was 2:2 (with Le Havre leading 2:1 in the first half). Throughout the season, Auxerre averages 1.7 corners at home in the first half, while Le Havre averages 2 corners in their away first halves. With these figures, a bet on under (4.5) corners in the first half seems reasonable.
Editor's Prediction
Considering the trends from previous head-to-heads between these teams (five consecutive matches with both teams scoring) and the current betting odds, a well-founded choice would be to bet on over 2.5 goals or both teams to score. However, the both teams to score bet carries a higher likelihood of success given Le Havre's trend (scoring and conceding in 11 of their last 12 matches). With both teams favoring an attacking style and having weak defensive records, this outcome seems the most probable.No comments
