Lens vs Le Havre: match facts, form and head-to-head – 5 December 2026, Ligue 1

Lens sit fourth in the table with four points from one win, one draw and two defeats, having scored eight and conceded seven, while Le Havre languish six places lower in sixteenth with just two points from two draws and two losses, their goal‑difference a modest minus two after netting two and letting in four. The home side will look to extend their modest lead in the standings as they try to convert their solitary win into a more consistent run, whereas the visitors will be desperate for their first victory of the campaign. Their head‑to‑head record this season offers little comfort for Le Havre, who have yet to earn three points against a Lens side that has already proven capable of edging out opponents despite a leaky defence. Both clubs know that three points could prove decisive in the fight for European spots and survival, respectively, making the clash at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis a pivotal encounter for each.
