Ligue 1 2024-2025: Le Havre-Lens, the likely lineups
The 17th day of Ligue 1 features at 3 p.m. the challenge between Elsner’s Le Havre and Still’s Lens, both coming off a defeat on the first day of 2025.
For Le Havre, the situation in the standings becomes even more complicated: the heavy 5-1 loss to Marseille also aggravated the goal difference of a team that holds the worst attack in the league and the third worst defense, surpassed only by those of St. Etienne and Montpellier.
Lens, on the other hand, disappointed in its home match against Toulouse, marked by Costa's expulsion and the decisive penalty that compromised the result. It was the third home defeat of the season for the Sang et Or, a team that performs better on the road but so far has a scoring average of just over one goal per game.
Probable lineups:
Le Havre: A. Desmas, T. Pembele, L. Nego, Y. Zouaoui, G. Lloris, E. Youte Kinkoue, A. Toure, Y. Kechta, D. Kuzyaev, A. Ayew, I. Housni. Coach: Elsner.
Lens: H. Koffi, K. Danso, M. Sarr, D. Machado, P. Frankowski, F. Sotoca, A. Fulgini, A. Zaroury, A. Diouf, A. Thomasson, M. Nzola. Coach: Still.
