General match analysis
Brest have a clear attacking edge away from home: they average 26 shots and 7 shots on target per match, with an xG of 2.56, while Le Havre record an xG of 1.56 at home. The hosts failed to score in their only home match so far despite 14 attempts and 4 shots on target, giving them a 100% rate of matches without scoring. Brest average 2 goals scored away from home, while also conceding 2, so the lack of a clean sheet on either side further increases the relevance of a draw scenario. However, the visitors’ defence allows an average xG of just 1.03, significantly lower than Le Havre’s 1.80, which, combined with the hosts’ finishing problems, gives Brest the advantage. The visitors are yet to win a match, having drawn both league fixtures and 4 of their last 5, but the quality of the chances they create points towards their first victory.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Seasonal data clearly support goals from both sides: Le Havre and Brest have a BTTS rate of 100%, and neither team has kept a clean sheet. Both teams produce a very high number of shots—27 and 26 per match, respectively—with 7 on target each, while their average xG stands at 2.39 and 2.56. Brest have scored an average of 1.8 goals and conceded 2.0 in their last five matches, with BTTS landing in 100% of those games. The risk to the pick is increased by Le Havre’s weaker run, as they have scored only 0.8 goals per game across their last five matches, with BTTS occurring in 40% of them; however, Brest have conceded an average of 2.0 goals during this period. Therefore, a scenario featuring goals from both the home and away teams is more likely than a match in which at least one side fails to score.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The strongest signal points to at least two goals: both teams have gone over the 1.5-goal line in 100% of their matches so far this season. Brest have averaged 1.8 goals scored and created chances worth 2.04 xG in their last five games, while Le Havre have conceded 1.69 xG during this period. The hosts’ current attacking output is lower, as they have averaged 0.8 goals in their last five matches, but Brest have conceded 2.0 goals per game, which boosts Le Havre’s chances of scoring. The projected total of 2.60 goals is above the 1.5 line, while the 2.5 line remains more balanced due to Le Havre’s more defensive results, with no Over 2.5 recorded in their last five matches.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
The strongest signal is a draw at half-time: in their last five matches, both teams were level after 45 minutes in 60% of cases. Le Havre scored only 0.4 goals before the break and conceded the same number, while Brest, despite scoring 0.8 goals, conceded as many as 1.2, which favors an evenly balanced opening. The full available season record also points towards draws for both teams, as each recorded 100% of matches ending in a share of the points, with an average of 2.0 goals scored and conceded. After the break, Brest look slightly stronger, averaging 1.0 goal compared with Le Havre’s 0.4, yet as many as 80% of their second halves ended level. Home advantage and Le Havre’s superior defensive quality in terms of xG against opponents—0.56 compared with Brest’s 1.03—reduce the visitors’ chances of turning the game in their favor. Therefore, the most likely HT/FT outcome is draw/draw (X/X).
