Le Havre vs PSG Predicted lineup, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, telecast | Ligue 1 2024-25
Post Kylian Mbappe era begins for the away team here.
Le Havre will be hoping to begin the new season on a positive note after narrowly missing out on relegation last term. They finished 15th in the league last season, three points shy of relegated Metz. The team also did not enjoy the best of pre-season after being hammered 6-0 by Bundesliga side Bochum in their final pre-season game. They now face a difficult task to contain reigning champions PSG in the season opener.
PSG begin the post-Mbappe era against Le Havre in the season opener. Despite losing their talisman, the team still looks strong on paper with the likes of Ousmane Dembele, Kolo Muani, and Bradley Barcola leading the attack. Luis Enrique’s team also made an excellent addition in the form of Joao Neves who looks destined to achieve greater heights with the club. The Parisians despite missing out on the UEFA Champions League final endured a strong season after winning the treble.

Players to Watch
Emmanuel Sabbi (Le Havre)
Emmanuel Sabbi had an excellent debut season for Le Havre after signing for the club from Danish outfit OB. He appeared 33 times for the club last season scoring five goals and assisting another one. Sabbi is a hard-working player who works effortlessly to help the team in the best possible way. Despite playing for the first time in a big league, Sabbi has shown enough potential to emerge as an exciting addition to the team.
Ousmane Dembele (Paris Saint-Germain)
Ousmane Dembele is set to play an important role for Paris Saint-Germain this season after the departure of Kylian Mbappe to become the new talisman player in the team. He had an excellent debut season for the team since signing from Barcelona in the summer window.
He netted six goals and assisted another 12 in all competitions to lead the team to a Super Cup, Coupe de France and Ligue 1 success last term. Comfortable with both feet, Dembele brings flair and creativity to this side.
