Angers vs LE Havre

Angers-Le Havre is the Ligue 1 match in which two red cards have been given out the earliest (after 15 minutes and 1 second) over the last 30 years.

After 9 minutes and 45 seconds, Lilian Raolisoa received the fastest red card for an Angers player in Ligue 1 in the last 40 years. The Angers defender was sent off for the second time this season, joint-highest tally (also 2 for Tanguy Coulibaly).

Le Havre have not won any of their last eight Ligue 1 matches (D2 L6), their longest winless streak in the top-flight since November 2008-January 2009 (9). This current run began on 1 December with a 1-0 defeat at home against... Angers.

Angers have won four of their last five matches against Le Havre in all competitions (L1), as many as in their previous 27 prior (D7 L16).

Le Havre have not lost any of their last eight away games against a newly promoted team in Ligue 1 (W5 D3), last doing so at Troyes in October 1999 (1-3).

Angers currently boast the best defence in Ligue 1 in 2025, with only two goals conceded. Only Strasbourg (10) have racked up more points than SCO (9) this calendar year in the top-flight.

The five previous teams to have tallied 13 points after 19 games of a Ligue 1 campaign in the 21st century, as Le Havre have in 2024-25, were relegated at the end of the season – although none of them finished last.

Angers have won their last two Ligue 1 home games (2-0 v Brest, 2-0 v Auxerre), but have not enjoyed a better home run in the top-flight since August-September 2019 (4 in a row).
