Lille vs Auxerre Prediction & Tips
Bruno Génésio’s side continue to impress with the quality of their defensive play – only the fearsome PSG with their 26 goals conceded surpassed Lille in this respect (the northerners have 31). The team is particularly confident at the ‘Stade Pierre-Mauroy’, where they have won their last three matches, keeping two clean sheets in two of them. In total, at home, Lille have five wins in their last six Ligue 1 matches, and only one defeat.
Auxerre, after two consecutive minimal victories in Ligue 1, stumbled in their visit against Lyon, losing 1-3. However, the team did not leave the pitch without scoring – their scoring streak in the championship has now reached five consecutive matches, which speaks for the stability of their offensive actions.
Despite the setback, the ‘Burgundians’ kept their 10th position in the table and continue to feel confident – the gap to the relegation playoff zone is a comfortable 11 points. The team is showing good form: in the last nine matches they have suffered only two defeats, managed four wins and three draws.
