Auxerre vs PSG Prediction and Betting Tips | December 6th 2024
Auxerre will welcome league leaders Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) to the Stade de l'Abbé Deschamps in Ligue 1 on Friday. The hosts have six wins and six losses apiece in 13 league games thus far and are in eighth place in the league table. The visitors have an unbeaten record in the league thus far, recording 10 wins.
The hosts saw their unbeaten streak in the league ended after five games last week, suffering a 2-0 away loss to Toulouse. They failed to score for the first time since September and will look to return to goalscoring ways.
Les Parisiens hosted Nantes last week and were held to a 1-1 draw, ending their five-game winning streak in the league. Achraf Hakimi broke the deadlock in the second minute and Matthis Abline equalized for Nantes in the 38th minute.

Auxerre vs PSG Prediction
Auxerre suffered a loss after three consecutive wins and will look to bounce back in this home game. They failed to score for the first time in nine games and conceded twice for the first time in five in their loss to Toulouse last week. They have won five of their six Ligue 1 home games this season and have suffered one loss in their last four Ligue 1 home meetings against the capital club.
Ange-Loïc N'Gatta is likely to return next week while Nathan Buayi-Kiala and Lasso Coulibaly will sit this one out with knee injuries.
The defending champions have seen a drop in form and are winless in their last two games. Nonetheless, they have enjoyed a good run of form in Ligue 1, scoring at least once in the competition since March, and will look to build on that record.
Lucas Hernandez, Presnel Kimpembe, and Senny Mayulu remain unavailable for Luis Enrique. Ousmane Dembélé was on the bench last week and might get the nod to start.
The visitors meet RB Salzburg in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, so Enrique is likely to rotate his squad. With that in mind and considering Auxerre's home record in the league this season, a draw is likely to ensue.
