Auxerre have the opportunity to move closer to survival in Ligue 1 when they welcome Lyon to Stade de l’Abbe Deschamps. With six matches remaining, Lyon are pushing for a Champions League slot, while a mid-table finish would satisfy Auxerre. Follow on for our prediction of the match.
In their last two seasons in Ligue 1, Auxerre got relegated. When they ascended back this time, their target was clearly set – to avoid relegation. As things stand, that target is being achieved.
The 1-0 win at Rennes has seen Auxerre open a 12-point gap from the bottom three. It was their fourth unbeaten outing, and in that period they’ve won three.
Ligue 1 is one of the routes Lyon are looking to use to rise back to the Champions League. The other is the Europa League, where they are in the quarter-finals.
After a night out in the continental competition, drawing 2-2 with Manchester United, Les Gones are back in domestic business. In the league, they have six wins in the last eight matches.
Heading into this game, they registered a key win, beating Lille 2-1 in their last league game. It was key that they bounce back in that manner after disappointing in the 4-2 loss to Strasbourg earlier.
Also, Lyon’s matches have been high-scoring, the last five in the league producing a total of 20 goals.
