My Prediction
Auxerre by 1Ah, let's talk some French football, Auxerre versus Le Havre, a showdown akin to a slightly overcooked baguette, crusty on the outside yet soft on the inside. In goal, we've got Mathieu Gorgelin for Le Havre; the man's made 22 saves on a rating of 7.38. Not too shabby. Donovan Léon on the other hand stands tall in the goal posts for Auxerre with 20 saves, boasting a rating of 7.43 - slightly more delicious, methinks.
Le Havre's top players, Junior Mwanga and Abdoulaye Touré, have been delivering good performances, their ratings hovering around the lower 7's. Chipped in a goal each, and Touré's even had a few more shots on goal: solid, if not exactly mouth-watering.
Auxerre, on the flip side, have Lassine Sinayoko and Gaëtan Perrin stirring up some curiosity with one goal a piece. Sinayoko's got a rating of 7.30, which is decent, comparable to a croissant that's been left in the oven just a tad too long.
Last time these two titans danced, Le Havre showed Auxerre the door, stomping over them with a 3-1 victory. But the past is a fickle friend and looking at the recent results, Auxerre's shown more spunk than a feisty poodle, notably, a coherent 4-0 victory over Lens. Le Havre's ride's been bumpier than a badly paved bylane in Provence, culminating in a gnarly 5-1 defeat at the hands of Stade Rennais. I mean, really. Aren't we even trying anymore, Le Havre?
Tossing all this into my magical predictor, I'd say that Auxerre is looking brighter than the summer sun over a Marseille vineyard. Le Havre? They've got about as much bite as yesterday's quiche.
