Preview: Havre Caucriauville Sportif vs. SC Bastia 2

LE HAVRE, France (Interstat) — A pivotal National 3 matchup on Saturday features Havre Caucriauville Sportif hosting SC Bastia 2, with the hosts seeking to avenge a narrow defeat from earlier in the season.

The game, set for April 11, 2026, at Stade Caucriauville, pits two sides with contrasting recent form. The home side, Havre Caucriauville, looks to rebound from a 1-0 road loss to C Chartres U19 last Saturday. That result snapped a modest two-match unbeaten run (1-0-1) for the club.

The visitors from Corsica, SC Bastia 2, arrive with momentum after a convincing 3-1 home victory over AS Saint-Ouen-l’Aumone on March 28. That win highlighted an attack that has found its rhythm, with the club scoring multiple goals in three of its last five contests.

However, the head-to-head history favors the visitors. In the teams’ most recent meeting on Dec. 6, 2025, SC Bastia 2 secured a 2-1 home win. That result is part of a challenging stretch for Havre Caucriauville, which has managed just one win in its last five league matches.

SC Bastia 2’s season has been marked by inconsistency on the road. Its away form includes a recent 3-1 loss at FC Versailles 78 and a 2-1 defeat at CMS Oissel in early March. Conversely, Havre Caucriauville has shown strength at home, including a 2-0 win over Sainte-Genevieve Sports in February and a 5-2 thrashing of CS Bretigny Football in November.

Key players for the hosts will need to unlock a Bastia defense that has kept two clean sheets in its last five matches. For Bastia, converting chances on the road will be critical to improving its away record.

According to Interstat’s game simulator, the match is projected to be a tight, low-scoring affair, with a predicted final score of 1-0 in favor of Havre Caucriauville Sportif. A victory for the hosts would provide a crucial boost in the league table and settle the season series, while SC Bastia 2 aims to complete the double and solidify its standing.

Kickoff is scheduled for 6 p.m. local time (1600 GMT).
