LiontipsStrasbourg vs Auxerre. Prediction and bets on the match of the French championship
Command Analysis
Current form
Strasbourg have been in a real fever lately. The team started the season brilliantly and was a potential participant in the European Cups, but the game in the last months of last year spoiled everything. A series of four defeats threw Liam Rosenior charges down the standings, and the team began to fight for survival. Only a goalless draw in the round before last with Reims and a 3-0 victory in the last match against Le Havre allowed them to improve their position in the ranking, and at present the team is in 13th place in the standings, four points ahead of the team from the play-off zone.
In the last meeting of last year, Strasbourg played in the 1/32 of the French Cup, where they managed to beat the unknown RS Calais with a score of 3:0. Thus, the club unbeaten streak lasts three matches in a row. To extend it, they will need to give it their all in the upcoming match.
Disqualifications and injuries
Sahi, Wiley, Delane, Belaarukh are injured and will not take to the field.
Interesting trends for betting
- Strasbourg are unbeaten for three games in a row
- The hosts have scored in five of the last six matches
Probable line-up: Petrovic - Due, Doucouré, Sarr, Moreira - Santos, Diarra - Bakwa, Sebas, Nanasi - Mara.
Current form
Auxerre surprised many fans of French football. Last season the team played in Ligue 2, but now, after 15 matches played, it is fighting for a place in the European Cups. The team is successful on its home field, but its away results leave much to be desired. In the last nine away matches, Christophe Pélissier protégés have lost six times, tied twice and won only one.
It is a little unclear how to treat the fact that Auxerre lost to Dunkerque in the last match of 2024 in the 1/32 of the French Cup on its home field, which is clearly not a higher playing class, and plays in the second league of the national championship. It is possible that this defeat is a tactical move in order to leave more strength for the performance in the domestic championship and not to be torn apart on two fronts.
Disqualifications and injuries
Koulibaly is injured and Ravilson is suspended.
Interesting trends for betting
- Auxerre have failed to even score in three of their last four matches
- The visitors have not known victory for four games in a row
Probable line-up: Leon - Akpa, Jubal, Diomande - Joly, Danois, Owusu, Mensah - Perrin, Sinayoko, Traore.
Trends

2.65Bet on Auxerre to score in the second half
Auxerre have scored in the second 45 minutes in three of their last five away games
1.80Tip and bets
In the last seven home matches, Strasbourg has lost only once. The defeat came against Monaco (1:3). This shows that the team plays well on its home field and gives 100%.
Auxerre have only managed to win once away from home in their last nine games. It was a very unexpected win over Marseille (3:1). It is possible that the Burgundians took advantage of a banal underestimation on the part of their opponent and earned three points. We believe that the hosts will take the upcoming match very seriously and will be able to please their fans with another victory.
Our prediction is a victory for Strasbourg with odds of 1.85
Bet on total
Strasbourg have failed to keep a clean sheet in three of their last four home games, while Auxerre have scored in five of their last six away games, suggesting that there will be no zeros on the scoreboard after the final whistle.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.63
Bet on corners
Strasbourg and Auxerre average the same number of corners per game - four. We believe that neither club will be able to take more in the upcoming match. This means that there is a high probability that there will be few corners.
Our prediction is total under 8.5 corners with odds of 1.82
