Teams still without a win: Toulouse vs Le Havre prediction
The Ligue 1 fifth-round clash between Toulouse and Le Havre will take place on September 19 at Stadium de Toulouse. Both teams have collected two points from their opening four matches and are still searching for their first win of the new season.
Toulouse: four rounds without a win
Jens Berthel Askou's side began the campaign with two defeats and two draws. In the previous round, Toulouse fought back from 0-2 down to draw 2-2 with Lorient.
The hosts conceded at least two goals in three of their four matches and also remain one of the league's most undisciplined teams in terms of fouls. At home, however, Toulouse have avoided defeat against Le Havre in their last two Ligue 1 meetings and kept a clean sheet in both.
Le Havre: the attack is still creating very little
Didier Digard's team are also still without a win, having recorded two draws and two defeats. In the previous round, Le Havre played out a 0-0 draw with Angers and kept a clean sheet.
The visitors' main problem is their lack of cutting edge: they have scored just two goals in four matches and created very few genuinely dangerous chances. At the same time, Le Havre are unbeaten away from home in five consecutive league matches.
Match facts and head-to-head record
- Both teams have collected two points and are still without a win in the current Ligue 1 season.
- Le Havre have scored just two goals in their opening four rounds.
- Toulouse have avoided defeat against Le Havre in their last two home league matches and kept a clean sheet on both occasions.
There may be very few goals: Toulouse vs Le Havre prediction
Both teams have looked unconvincing so far and are struggling to create chances. Toulouse have been inconsistent defensively, but Le Havre score too few goals to punish them on a regular basis.
Considering the opponents' current form, this could be a cautious and tightly contested match. Neither side looks convincing enough at the moment to warrant expectations of a clear advantage.
