    Le Havre
    • Despite last week’s 3-1 loss to Nice, Didier Digard is expected to stick with the same starting XI that previously secured a victory over Lille. Ahmed Hassan will continue to lead the attack, while Issa Soumaré remains a key figure on the left wing.
    • However, the squad remains weakened by long-term absences, with Abdoulaye Touré, Élysée Logbo, Fodé Ballo-Touré, Emmanuel Sabbi, and Daler Kuzyaev all still sidelined due to injury.
    Toulouse
    • Goalkeeper Guillaume Restes was forced off due to injury during last week’s match against PSG, adding to Toulouse’s concerns.
    • Offensively, the team has been struggling, with the absences of Josh King and Yann Gboho further limiting their attacking options.
