Lyon create chances worth 1.6 a game (and give up chances worth 1.5), leaving them +0.1 a game on the balance. Le Havre create 1.2 (giving up 1.5) for a balance of -0.3. The underlying numbers clearly favour Lyon. They're creating better chances AND giving up fewer good ones. Lyon are trending upwards. Their chances are worth 1.9 a game over the last 5 vs 1.6 for the season. They're in a real attacking groove.
Lyon average 2.0 goals per game and Le Havre manage 1.6. Combined that's just 3.6. We make it only 8% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game. Both teams scoring looks unlikely (just 29%). Lyon shut the door in 44% of their games and Le Havre draw a blank in 41% of theirs, so don't be surprised if one side keeps it tight at the back.
Both teams score in 47% of Lyon's home games and 41% of Le Havre's away matches. both teams finding the net isn't guaranteed. Lyon keep the other side out in 44% of games and Le Havre fail to score 41% of the time. there's a real chance one side keeps it tight at the back.
Lyon are all-out attack: 2.0 goals a game, but they leak 2.2 at the other end. They'll throw plenty at Le Havre, but there are gaps at the back for the visitors to get at.
Most likely scorelines: 1-1 (9%) and 0-1 (5%).
