Welcome to Extratips! Today, we saw Le Havre clawing their way to a 3-1 defeat against Nice — a match packed with surprises. Key moments include Nice's early attacking surge, which, despite no goals in the first half, set the tone. The game then exploded into life with a quick counter that saw the visitors net twice, demonstrating their offensive firepower. Interestingly, Le Havre's only goal came from a late set-piece, hinting at their attacking threats on dead balls.

The standout performers were notably the visitors' main threat — their creative midfielder, whose pace and vision unlocked the hosts' defense. Meanwhile, the home side's solid defensive moves, especially in the second half, kept the game competitive even when it looked out of reach.

Tactically, Nice adapted quickly after halftime, leaning on quick transitions and exploiting spaces on the break, which proved crucial. Pre-match predictions leaned heavily towards a Nice win, with odds around 1.91, foreseeing a high-scoring game, which did materialize with over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring — predictions that almost came true.

Historically, the head-to-head was a goalless draw earlier this season, making this result a sign of Nice's improved form. This victory boosts Nice's confidence but raises questions about Le Havre's defensive gaps. Going forward, Nice looks set for a stronger campaign, while Le Havre must tighten up at the back. The match gave fans plenty to talk about, especially the attacking burst from Nice and Le Havre's set-piece resilience—a lively fixture with new storylines unfolding.
