PSG vs. Le Havre: Match preview
PSG has lost its competitive motivation in Ligue 1, having already become champions. This is their fourth consecutive title and eighth in the last ten seasons. Perhaps the only incentive left for the Parisians is the desire to go unbeaten for the season – so far, they have zero defeats, and there are six rounds left in the championship. Such an outcome is quite realistic. Earlier this week, PSG lost to Aston Villa but advanced to the UEFA Champions League semi-finals. Most likely, all energy will now be directed towards the European tournament and the upcoming French Cup final. Resources are expected to be allocated accordingly.
On the other hand, Le Havre cannot afford to relax. The team is fighting for survival in Ligue 1. After 29 rounds, they have 27 points and sit in 16th place in the table – a position that grants a playoff spot to maintain their status. They are only two points behind the safety of 15th place, so avoiding the playoffs is quite possible. In their last six matches, Le Havre has achieved two wins, two draws, and two losses. Away from home, the team has lost only once in the past six outings, making the prospect of staying in the elite without playoffs achievable.
Probable lineups
- PSG: Donnarumma; Hakimi, Pacho, Lucas Beraldo, Hernandez; Duer, Lee, Zaire-Emery; Dembele, Goncalo Ramos, Barcola
- Le Havre: Gorgelin; Nego, Sangante, Lloris, Ballo-Toure; Toure, Mwanga, Kechta; Casimir, Ayew, Soumare
Prediction
Le Havre has more significant motivation than PSG, but the Parisians will not want to lose at home and will strive for victory. I believe they will succeed, so my bet is on the host's individual total over 2.5 with odds of 1.5.
