Le Havre's league form has been tougher going. They've drawn twice and lost three times in their last five, without a single win in that run. Games against Toulouse, Stade Brestois and Monaco have all gone against them, and the goals have been hard to come by too.

Auxerre arrive with more points on the board and a bit more recent momentum than Le Havre.

Comparative Team Statistics: LE Havre vs Auxerre

Head-to-head: Le Havre have had the better of it recently

Despite the current gap in form, Le Havre haven't lost any of their last four meetings with Auxerre. They won at home 3-1 back in 2024, then won away in both the 2025 fixtures, and the two sides drew 1-1 when they last met in April 2026.

That's a run worth keeping in mind. Auxerre may be higher up the table right now, but this fixture hasn't been kind to them lately, whatever the league position suggested at the time.

This head-to-head record doesn't line up neatly with the current standings gap.

Table gap: Auxerre well clear early on

Five games in, Auxerre sit tenth with six points from two wins and three defeats. Le Havre are down in eighteenth with just two points, having drawn twice and lost three times without a win.

Both sides have conceded more than they've scored so far, but Auxerre's goal difference is the healthier of the two. It's still a small sample, so there's room for things to shift as the season goes on.

Key men: Archer sharp in front of goal

Auxerre's C. Archer has three goals in just three appearances, which stands out even allowing for the small sample. Le Havre's main threat has been M. Samatta, who has two goals in five games so far this season.

Penalty cards:

On the disciplinary side, Auxerre's C. Makosso has already picked up a red card in four matches, and Le Havre's J. Mwanga has one too in the same number of appearances. Neither is confirmed to be out for this one, but it's a pattern worth flagging.
