Havre vs Lille prediction, H2H and probable lineups – 30 November 2025
One of the matches of Ligue 1’s 14th round will take place on Sunday at the “Océane” stadium in Le Havre, where the local team will host Lille. Here’s my betting tip for this clash, with solid chances for success.
Match preview
Le Havre’s season has been nothing short of turbulent. In 13 rounds, Didier Digard’s men have managed only three wins, drawn five times, and suffered five defeats. This leaves the club hovering dangerously close to the relegation zone—just three points separate them from 17th-placed Metz.
The “Sky Blues” are now on a three-game winless streak. Their last victory came at the end of October, edging Brest 1-0. Since then, they’ve recorded two draws—against Toulouse (0-0) and Nantes (1-1)—before being comprehensively outplayed by reigning champions PSG in a 0-3 defeat.
Lille, on the other hand, are building momentum. In their last two outings, the “Dogues” netted eight goals: beating Paris FC in Ligue 1 (4-2) and thrashing Dinamo Zagreb 4-0 in the Europa League. Overall, Bruno Génésio’s squad have showcased attacking prowess, scoring 27 goals in Ligue 1—matching the output of leaders PSG.
Lille currently sit fourth, five points off third place. If they maintain this form, they have a genuine shot at climbing higher. They’ve already put together a three-match winning streak earlier this season—and look well placed to repeat that run now.

Prediction
I believe Lille are simply stronger than Le Havre and have the better chance of taking all three points. However, this could be a tightly contested affair, so I recommend another approach—backing under 3 goals (total under 3). Even if Lille do win, it’s likely to be by a narrow margin, without a high scoreline. My prediction: under 3 goals.
