"Starting with the hosts, officially punching their Europa League group stage ticket last month as they secured a famous 3-2 aggregate victory against Danish giants Brondby, Strasbourg have rightfully received a string of plaudits from across the continent. Enjoying life under Liam Rosenior's guidance and with their sights set on mounting another European charge this time around, Le Racing will be hoping to mark their return from September's international break with a statement of intent."
"As for the visitors, while Le Havre might have eventually clung to their Ligue 1 status last season, it is no secret that Didier Digard's men are pencilled in as a standout relegation candidate this time around. Getting the new campaign underway with a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Monaco, the Dean Club look set for what will be another stern examination when they return from September's international break here."
Strasbourg secured Europa League group stage qualification with a 3-2 aggregate win over Brondby and have earned continental plaudits. Liam Rosenior's side seek an immediate response after a 3-2 loss at Monaco before the international break and have suffered only one defeat in any competition since the 2025/26 campaign began. Strasbourg boast strong home form, including a 2-1 win over PSG, and have recorded just one Ligue 1 home loss since March. Le Havre are viewed as relegation candidates despite a shock 3-1 win over Nice, having conceded six goals in their first three league matches.
