Full Analysis
Stade Océane plays host to Le Havre versus Paris Saint Germain in Ligue 1, Regular Season - 24. Kick-off: Saturday 28 February 2026 at 20:05 UTC.
Form & Momentum
Le Havre have collected 1.20 PPG across 10 Ligue 1 outings this season: 3W 3D 4L. Last five: D L W W L. They are averaging 0.70 goals per game and conceding 0.90 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. This season is still relatively young for Le Havre, so this record blends games from this season and last.
In front of their own supporters this season, Le Havre have posted 4W 5D 1L at Stade Océane — 1.70 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.10 goals scored and 0.80 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture. Their home PPG of 1.70 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.20 — Le Havre are significantly better at Stade Océane than their overall form suggests.
Paris Saint Germain (all games): 8W 0D 2L across 10 Ligue 1 outings this term — 2.40 points per game. Last five: W W W L W. Their attacking form is sharp — 2.50 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. Defensively, 0.80 goals conceded per game is elite-level — a side this difficult to score against is a real threat to Over 2.5 and BTTS Yes. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is an exceptional defensive record — they are keeping clean sheets more often than not. This season is still relatively young for Paris Saint Germain, so this record blends games from this season and last.
When travelling in Ligue 1 this season, Paris Saint Germain have posted 5W 2D 3L from 10 away outings — 1.70 PPG. Away from home they average 1.50 goals scored and 1.20 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context. Their away PPG of 1.70 is notably below their overall 2.40 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.
On a straight form reading, Paris Saint Germain are the stronger side — 1.20 PPG clear of the hosts (2.40 vs 1.20). Backing them with draw insurance is the conservative play if the outright away price appears short.
In terms of goals, both squads have been finding the net consistently (using home/away splits) — Le Havre have seen both teams score in 60% of their games, Paris Saint Germain in 60%. That combined rate is a strong statistical case for BTTS Yes as a standalone play.
H2H Analysis
The head-to-head ledger leans to Paris Saint Germain, who have claimed 4 wins from 5 meetings compared to 0 for the hosts, with 1 draws.
These two sides have produced goals at a consistent rate historically, averaging 3.8 per game across 5 meetings. That scoring profile provides genuine support for the Over 2.5 angle. The most recent clash, on 22 Nov 2025, ended 0–3 with Paris Saint Germain winning.
The H2H provides genuine backing for the away side. Paris Saint Germain have won 4 of 5 previous encounters, and at 3.8 goals per game, the goals market also points upward. The away win and Over 2.5 combination has a historical case worth noting.
Trading Data
Le Havre goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (57 games, 29 at home): they score before half-time in 76% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 79% of the time; BTTS occurs in 62% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 62% of games (home games); they fail to score in 33% of games.
Paris Saint Germain goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (57 games, 29 at away): they score before half-time in 72% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 92% of the time; they lead at the break 54% of the time; BTTS occurs in 72% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 62% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 46%.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Le Havre 56% versus Paris Saint Germain 63%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Le Havre 53% | Paris Saint Germain 67%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Le Havre 1.29 xG and Paris Saint Germain 1.26 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Le Havre attack 0.905 / defence 0.858 | Paris Saint Germain attack 1.223 / defence 0.943. League average goals — home 1.509 / away 1.200. Paris Saint Germain have an above-average attack strength of 1.223 — the away xG of 1.26 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 57 Le Havre games / 57 Paris Saint Germain games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Le Havre 37% | Draw 27% | Paris Saint Germain 36%. Fair-value odds: Le Havre 2.70 | Draw 3.70 | Paris Saint Germain 2.78. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 27% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 47% | BTTS probability 52% | Total xG 2.55. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 47%/53% — the total xG of 2.55 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 52% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Le Havre at 37% — marginal model lean. Note a divergence: in-form Paris Saint Germain (2.40 PPG) cuts against the Poisson lean — consider the strength-adjusted model over surface-level form results. Draw probability of 27% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Le Havre if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 36% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
Poisson projects 2.55 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 47% probability — Poisson-only — limited corroboration conviction — though H2H averaging only 3.8 goals per meeting points in the other direction.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 52% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Le Havre 60% | Paris Saint Germain 60% BTTS from recent games.
The outsider holds a 36% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should not be treated as one. Proportionate stakes are appropriate given the genuine contest the data projects.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Paris Saint Germain beat Le Havre 0-1 at Stade Océane, Regular Season - 24, in the Ligue 1. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Le Havre 1.29 xG and Paris Saint Germain 1.26 xG, a combined 2.55. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Le Havre fell 1.3 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Le Havre attack 0.91 / defence 0.86 against Paris Saint Germain attack 1.22 / defence 0.94, drawn from 57/57 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Le Havre 37% | Draw 27% | Paris Saint Germain 36%, with Le Havre to win its most likely call at 37%. The actual Paris Saint Germain win had been the model's second-ranked read at 36%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 47%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 72% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 52% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 60% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Le Havre 53%, Paris Saint Germain 67%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 60%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Le Havre's trading profile (57 games, 29 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 56% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 33% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Paris Saint Germain's trading profile (57 games, 29 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 63% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 33% of the time, and duly kept one.
Form vs Result
On form, Paris Saint Germain arrived the stronger side — 2.42 PPG against 1.05. That form edge translated into the three points. Le Havre (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.03 scoring average — below par going forward. Paris Saint Germain (home/away splits) managed 1 against a 2.38 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.17 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss), form (hit). The model got the gist right while missing on the margins.
