Ismael Bennacer was forced off at the break in last week's 1-1 draw at Lille, with Valentin Rongier expected to start alongside Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the middle of the park.

Prediction

Le Havre

1 : 1

Olympique de Marseille

Le Havre ended a three-game winless run with a 2-1 win at Auxerre last weekend to give their survival hopes a huge boost. They occupy the relegation playoff spot and sit just one point off Nantes in 15th.
However, they face an incredibly difficult opponent in Marseille, who travel to Le Havre on a three-game unbeaten streak following their 1-1 draw with Lille. That said, Roberto De Zerbi's men haven't won in five on the road.
There will be a raucous atmosphere at the Stade Oceane on Saturday, and while Le Havre have the worst home record in the division, they did hold Monaco to a 1-1 draw here recently, and a repeat may be on the cards.
