Yanis Zouaoui
LEHRuled out for season finale
Zouaoui (calf) was not included in the squad for Sunday's final fixture of the season against Lorient, according to the club.
Analysis: Zouaoui's absence confirms the calf issue proved too significant to overcome in time for the Stade Oceane showdown, bringing his campaign to a premature end. The left-back finishes the season with one goal and one assist across 30 Ligue 1 appearances, while also contributing 184 crosses going forward and posting 48 tackles and 26 interceptions defensively, underlining his importance on both sides of the pitch. Enzo Koffi is expected to start at left-back in his place as Le Havre close out their campaign against Lorient.
Suffers calf issue
Zouaoui is doubtful for Sunday's season finale against Lorient due to a calf injury, according to coach Didier Digard, per FOOT NORMAND.
Analysis: Zouaoui's potential absence is a concern for Le Havre heading into the final fixture of their season, with the club assessing his condition ahead of Sunday's kickoff before making a final call on his involvement against the Merlus. Enzo Koffi is expected to start at left-back if Zouaoui cannot be cleared in time for the Stade Oceane showdown.
Season high in blocks
Zouaoui registered nine crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Lille.
Analysis: Zouaoui put up huge defensive numbers, setting a new season high with three blocks alongside four tackles, two interceptions and five clearances, while also delivering nine crosses going forward. It was however the first time in five games he failed to create a chance. The left back has now registered four or more tackles in three of his last four games while also delivering five or more crosses during that run.
Stuffs stat sheet
Zouaoui scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal), seven crosses (three accurate) and five corners in Sunday's 4-4 draw versus Metz.
Analysis: Zouaoui has been steadily taking on a bigger role at Le Havre but he dominated in this encounter with a goal, seven crosses and five corners. He will need to do so again for Le Havre to break through a Lille defense which has only conceded 34 goals in 31 matches.
Creates three chances in draw
Zouaoui recorded one shot (zero on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Angers.
Analysis: Zouaoui led his side with five crosses and matched Sofiane Boufal for chances created with three, but was unable to add to his lone assist of the season. Despite his limited return, he has been a consistent creative outlet, delivering 159 crosses and creating 31 chances in league play this campaign.
