Command Analysis
Auxerre
Current form
Auxerre has emerged from the crisis and has won three times in the last four rounds. However, we note that the defense is bursting at the seams and 17 goals have already been conceded – the worst figure in Ligue 1. Nine points scored allow you to take 11th place in the standings, but the gap from the danger zone is only three points. Today there is a great opportunity to break away from the pursuers.
In the last round, the Burgundians faced Le Havre and won 3-1, scoring two goals in the second and one in the first half. Before this match, Will Still's team lost 1-4 to Rennes, but they won against Brest (2:1) earlier in the confrontation.
Disqualifications and injuries
Fofana, Oko and Senaya will miss the game due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
Auxerre has been conceding an average of 2.5 goals since the start of the season
The team wins two consecutive games at its stadium
Le Mans has dropped into the danger zone and is currently in 16th place with six points. The team continues to struggle for survival in the elite and at this stage cannot cope with more experienced clubs that have been competing in Ligue 1 for several years. There was only one victory. The Blood-gold defeated Lorient 2-1 in the fifth round. It should be noted that the club scored 10 goals, which is a good indicator in the championship. The wards of Patrick Vieira prefer to play open football, but recently it has not begun to bring results. In the last round, Mance lost 0-3 to Toulouse, conceding three goals in the second half. Earlier, Le Mans could not cope with PSG (1:3).
Disqualifications and injuries
Injured Cola, Burabaa and Rossignol will miss the game.
Interesting betting trends
In the last three out of five matches, the Mants have conceded at least two goals
In this match, the hosts simply have to earn a full three points and break away from the danger zone, and the opponent is suitable. The three-point gap from Le Mans needs to be increased, especially since the competitors do not shine with an outstanding game.Auxerre is currently fighting a difficult battle in Ligue 1 and has won the last two matches on its own field. We believe that the experience and support of the fans will be key factors leading to the victory of Still's players, which we will rely on.
Prediction – Auxerre wins with a coefficient of 2.07
Auxerre has been playing well lately, and most of the matches have been scoring goals. The Burgundians have finished their last three league games with a high total. Le Mans scores few goals (10 goals since the start of Ligue 1), but they can score one goal. We believe that the opponents will act on opposite courses and will spend a lot of time attacking, which will lead to a scoring extravaganza. We suggest you place a bet on a high total.
The betting tip is a total of more than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.70
The bet on the difference in the account
The hosts have no right to lose today and will play for the result. Considering that Still's players are playing on their own field and have the support of the fans, it won't be difficult for them to win by one goal. This was the case in Auxerre's last two home matches, and we'll bet on that.
Prediction: Auxerre wins with a one—goal advantage with a coefficient of 3.85
