Auxerre vs Strasbourg prediction: FRANCE: Ligue 1 betting tips on match 2025-03-01 16:15.
[p]Although Auxerre have lost four of their last five games against Strasbourg in all competitions (W1), they are unbeaten across all six of their home H2Hs in Ligue 1 in the 21st century (W3, D3)! AJA have also been impressive at the Stade de l’AbbĂ©-Deschamps this season where they have not lost any of their last ten league games (W5, D5) – their best unbeaten home run in one campaign since May 2007.[/p]
[p]In the relative security of mid-table, it has been an excellent return to the top-flight for Christophe Pélissier’s side who have already amassed 28 points, which serves as their highest tally at this stage in Ligue 1 since 2009/10. Such has been their turnaround, they require just one win and one goal to equal their tallies of eight victories and 35 goals from the 2022/23 relegation season![/p]
[p]Strasbourg are on the brink of equalling an impressive feat of their own as they’re bidding to keep a fourth successive Ligue 1 clean sheet for the first time since May 2004. In total, Liam Rosenior’s team have conceded only five goals across their last ten league games – a stat made all the more impressive by the fact all the other teams in the division have leaked ten or more since matchday 14.[/p]
[p]It was a goalless draw for Strasbourg last time out against fellow-European hopefuls Brest but they got the better of Lens, another team hovering just outside the top six, in their last away game. That made it three victories from their last five matches on the road in Ligue 1 (D1, L1), equalling the same number of wins from their previous 26 such fixtures (D9, L14)! [/p]
[p]Players to watch: Gaëtan Perrin has contributed to five goals (G3, A2) in his last three games and he netted the winner when these two teams last met at the Stade de l’Abbé-Deschamps in August 2022. Emanuel Emegha has been involved in eight goals (G7, A1) since the start of 2025, including a goal and an assist in Strasbourg’s 3-1 victory in the reverse fixture.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Ahead of the round, only Rennes (seven) have kept more home league clean sheets this season than Auxerre (six). [/p]
