Ligue 1 action returns to Stade Geoffroy-Guichard on Saturday evening as Saint-Etienne and Le Havre look to bounce back from opening day defeats.

Saint-Etienne vs Le Havre Betting Tips - BTTS

Saint-Etienne face their first home fixture of the new season following a narrow 1:0 defeat at Monaco last weekend. The newly-promoted side, competing in Ligue 1 after a two-year absence, were beaten by a first-half strike from Japanese attacker Takumi Minamino. 

After securing their return to the French top flight via the playoffs Olivier Dall’Oglio´s side enjoyed a decent pre-season campaign which saw them win two and lose one of our summer friendly fixtures before last weekend's Ligue 1 setback.

The hosts enjoyed an excellent run of form at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard, scoring eight wins and one draw in their last nine competitive fixtures. Four of their six most recent home fixtures also saw BTTS, an outcome witnessed in eight of Saint-Etienne´s last nine home Ligue 1 contests in 2022. 

Le Havre come into this fixture looking to bounce back from a 4:1 opening day loss against Ligue 1  champions PSG. Well in the match until the final ten minutes, three goals conceded after the 83rd minute condemned Didier Digard´s side to a somewhat unfortunate home reversal. 

Out-of-form since the end of last season, Le Havre have now lost each of their last three matches and 11 of their previous 15 in Ligue 1. Like the hosts, high-scoring outcomes have been frequent, with four of their five previous league games seeing BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored. 

Considering all of the numbers mentioned above, BTTS looks the safest with both teams capable of picking up the points this weekend.
