    Nantes take on Le Havre in a Ligue 1 match at the Stade de la Beaujoire this Sunday.

    Nantes are currently in 17th place in the table and look like they could end up slipping out of Ligue 1 at the end of the season. Le Havre, meanwhile, are in 13th, but have a twelve-point lead on this weekend’s opponents.

    So can Nantes claim some valuable points here, or will Le Havre leave them even closer to the drop?

    Nantes vs Le Havre Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

    • Le Havre are unbeaten in their last three matches against Nantes, and also won in their last visit to the Stade de la Beaujoire. That win, though, is their only one at Nantes’ home ground in their last six trips there.
    • After beating Marseille in an upset to begin 2026, Nantes’ form has really gone on a downturn since. They have now lost their last six matches in a row, falling to ten-man Monaco last weekend.
    • Le Havre picked up their second win in a row last weekend by overcoming Toulouse, despite being a man down after a red card for Arouna Sangante just two minutes into the game. In 2026, in fact, they’ve only lost one of their six matches.
    • Nantes might have the home advantage in this match, but it’d be fair to say that their form at the Stade de la Beaujoire will not exactly give them confidence here. They have not won at home since August 30th, a winless run of ten games.
    • These sides are both amongst Ligue 1’s lowest-scoring teams, with only 20 goals to their name thus far. However, while Le Havre have kept things relatively tight at the back, conceding 27, Nantes have not. They have let 40 goals in, more than any side other than bottom club Metz.

    Nantes vs Le Havre Prediction

    Based on the recent form of both teams, this game could be coming at just the right time for Le Havre. They will come into this one on the back of two straight wins, and will be facing a side who’ve only won three times all season.

    Moreover, Nantes’ poor defensive record and appalling form at home means that their confidence will be very low, particularly with the spectre of relegation well and truly looming.

    Given it’s tough to see Nantes’ form turning around any time soon, then, the prediction is a win for Le Havre.

    Prediction: Nantes 0-1 Le Havre
