Prediction

  • AJ Auxerre take on Olympique de Marseille at the Stade de l'Abbé Deschamps in an important Ligue 1 fixture. Auxerre, currently sitting 12th in the standings with 25 points, have been inconsistent this season but remains a tough opponent at home. They have shown resilience in recent matches, often securing draws, but will need a near-perfect performance to trouble Marseille.
  • Marseille, on the other hand, are in excellent form, sitting second in the table with 46 points. They are one of the strongest teams in Ligue 1 this season, having won 14 of their 22 matches so far. Their attacking power, led by key players such as Mason Greenwood and new signing Amine Gouiri, has been a crucial factor in their success. However, they will be without captain Leonardo Balerdi due to suspension, which could create some defensive vulnerabilities.
  • Historically, Marseille have dominated this fixture, winning four of their last five meetings against Auxerre. However, the most recent clash saw Auxerre stun Marseille with a 3-1 victory at the Orange Vélodrome, proving they are capable of causing an upset.
  • With Marseille’s strong attacking form and Auxerre's home advantage, this match could be competitive, but the visitors remain favourites. Expect Marseille to control possession and create more chances, with their quality likely making the difference.
