Nice will invite Le Havre to Allianz Riviera in Ligue 1 on Saturday. Le Gym have enjoyed a decent run in Ligue 1, with five wins in 13 league games. They are in sixth place in the table with 20 points, the same as seventh-placed Lens. The visitors, however, have four wins, and are in 16th place with 12 points.
The hosts have seen a drop in form recently, with just one win in their last five games. After a 2-1 win over Strasbourg in their first game back since the international break last month, they have suffered back-to-back 4-1 losses.
They played Rangers in the UEFA Champions League last week and suffered a 4-1 loss. Their poor form continued in Ligue 1 when they suffered an away loss to Lyon. Sofiane Diop had equalized in the 22nd minute but Lyon added two late goals in the first half and added their fourth goal after the break.
Trending
The visitors failed to score for the seventh time in the league last week, suffering a 1-0 home loss to Angers.

Nice vs Le Havre Prediction
Les Aiglons have suffered consecutive 4-1 defeats and will look to improve upon that record. They have suffered just one loss at home in all competitions, though five of their nine home games have ended in draws. They have scored at least one goal in all but one of their last 19 Ligue 1 home games.
They have a lengthy absentee list with Jonathan Clauss, Ali Abdi, Antoine Mendy, and Melvin Bard being long-term absentees. Dante suffered an injury against Strasbourg and faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines.
Youssouf Ndayishimiye, Morgan Sanson, Victor Orakpo, and Terem Moffi are also not an option here. Mohamed-Ali Cho picked up an injury last week and is the latest injury concern. Jérémie Boga should return here though Hicham Boudaoui and Mohamed Abdelmonem are doubts.
Le Club Doyen have seen conclusive results in the league this season, with four wins. They have failed to score in three of their last five away games while conceding eight times.
Issa Soumaré, Josué Casimir, and Arouna Sanganté are confirmed absentees while Ismaël Bouneb, Emmanuel Sabbi, and Elysée Logbo face late fitness tests.
The hosts' lengthy absentee list is a cause for concern. With that in mind and considering the visitors' goalscoring record this season, a low-scoring draw is likely to ensue.
