Havre vs Angers Prediction 12 September 2026
🔊 Le Havre have gone seven consecutive home Ligue 1 matches without a win, and have scored just two goals at home so far this season. Angers have scored twice as many, though three of their four came in a single away match at Auxerre. Otherwise the two sides look similar: three points against one, 12th place against 16th.
Head-to-Head
📊 Le Havre have gone three consecutive Ligue 1 matches without losing to Angers. In January they beat Angers 2-1 at home, and in April the reverse fixture ended 1-1. The last time Angers won here was in December 2024. Scorelines in this fixture have been modest for a while: fewer than four goals in five head-to-head meetings in a row.
Head-to-head statistics Havre - Angers
Havre Team Overview
After three rounds, Le Havre have one point and sit 16th. Didier Digard's side lost at home to Monaco, drew away at Lyon, and last round were beaten by Brest (1-2). They played the second half of that match with ten men after Junior Mwanga was sent off just before the break. They pulled one back from the penalty spot on 79 minutes, and then lost their goalkeeper in the 94th minute.
Le Havre are struggling at home: both of their home matches this season have ended in defeat. They have scored just two goals in three rounds - one each from Mbwana Samatta and Ryan Fofana, with the latter coming from the penalty spot. That means the hosts have scored just once from open play all season. Defensively the numbers are more respectable: four goals conceded, the sixth-best figure in Ligue 1.
Match Results: Havre
Angers Team Overview
Angers are 12th. Stéphan Gilli took charge of the club in the summer on a two-year contract, having previously worked in Paris. At home, the new manager is yet to win - Angers lost to Lille in the first round and were beaten by Rennes last time out. The trip to Auxerre, though, brought both three goals and their first three points.
The main talking point for the visitors is their defence: Angers have conceded in nine consecutive Ligue 1 matches. Away from home, however, they have been scoring - they have found the net in six consecutive away matches, and their run of scoring after the break on the road is exactly the same length. There are fresh faces up front too: Branco van den Boomen has arrived from Ajax, and Amine El-Ouazzani has joined on loan from Braga, with both already contributing a goal and an assist early in the season.

Latest news
Havre
❌ The hosts have suffered a fresh and significant blow: Lionel Mpasi-Nzau picked up an injury late in the match against Brest. The goalkeeper is not expected back until the end of October. His place in goal has gone to new signing Gauthier Gallon, with backup Paul Arnié also in the treatment room. Mwanga is suspended after receiving a red card in that same match. Félix Mambimbi and Stéphane Zagadou continue their rehabilitation. The club were active on both sides of the transfer window on deadline day: Le Havre brought in Ryan Fofana on loan from Lens, while Fodé Doucouré left for Nantes.
Angers
❓ Gilly have fewer injury concerns. Haris Belkebla is being kept out by a thigh problem, and the midfielder is not expected back until around 20 September. Louis Mouton is also a doubt with a knee issue. On the transfer front, defender Joseph Kalulu has been signed from Pau for two million euros. Angers' next match is again at home, on 19 September against Troyes.

⚽️ Goals Prediction
Angers have scored in six consecutive away Ligue 1 matches. They also have a run of six straight away games in which they have scored after half-time. Le Havre's home record tells the opposite story: they have conceded in 8 of their last 9 home league matches, and last round their second goal conceded - from Brest - came right at the start of the second half. On top of that, the hosts now have a new goalkeeper between the posts. The bet is Angers to Score in the Second Half at 1.99*.
🚩 Corners Prediction
Based on the last 10 matches: Le Havre average 4.2 corners per game, while Angers' opponents earn 5.3. For the visitors it mirrors that: 5.4 corners of their own plus 5.1 conceded by Le Havre's opponents. The match looks set to produce around ten corners in total, and the overall averages point the same way: 9.3 corners per game for Le Havre and 10.7 for Angers. The bet is Total Corners - Over 8.5.
🟨 Yellow Cards Prediction
The match will be refereed by Ruddy Buquet, who is far from the most lenient official. Over his last 10 matches he has averaged 3.1 yellow cards per game, and over his last 100 it is 3.61. On top of that, Le Havre's players have collected 23 cards in their last 10 matches while their opponents picked up 14, and Angers have accumulated 18 with their opponents receiving 15. That works out to an average of 3.7 cards per match in Le Havre's games and 3.3 in Angers' games. The bet is Total Yellow Cards - Over 2.5.

⭐️ Editorial Prediction
There is little reason to expect a clean sheet in this fixture. Angers have failed to keep one in nine consecutive Ligue 1 matches, while Le Havre have conceded in 8 of their last 9 home league games. Neither side addressed that problem over the summer.
Angers are also capable of scoring on the road: they have both scored and conceded in each of their last five away matches. The hosts should need only one chance to find the net - their opponents tend to allow that. We are expecting a goal at each end and a cautious finish. The bet is Both Teams to Score - Yes. Predicted score: 1-1.
