Lyon vs. Le Havre (Sunday, 7.45pm)
Lyon, currently without a manager after the departure of Laurent Blanc, is determined to secure their first victory in the Ligue 1 this season.
However, they face a challenging test against Le Havre, last year’s Ligue 2 champions who have started the campaign strongly.
With Lyon needing to turn their fortunes around, this match presents an ideal opportunity for them.
Our prediction: Lyon 3-2 Le Havre
Despite Lyon’s struggles, they have the potential to bounce back and claim a thrilling victory over Le Havre.
The recent departure of their manager may spark a new sense of determination in the team.

Lorient vs. Monaco (Sunday, 12.00pm)
Ligue 1 leaders Monaco will be aiming to continue their unbeaten start to the season when they face Lorient at the Stade du Moustoir.
With 10 points out of a possible 12 and an impressive 13 goals scored, Monaco is in excellent form. On the other hand, Lorient has collected five points so far but has struggled for consistency.
