Auxerre vs Lille Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 22nd April 2023

Lille take on Auxerre this coming Saturday at Stade de l'Abbe-Deschamps with both fighting to improve on their current position at either end of the Ligue 1 standings.

Auxerre are looking for a payback after suffering a disappointing defeat in their latest encounter with Lille but odds don't favour them to pull it off.

Auxerre only average a modest 1.1 goals per game in their last ten matches in this tournament, in which they scored 11 goals. They also conceded six for an average of 0.6 per game. They kept their opponents from scoring five times.

Lille go into the next Ligue 1 match with an average of 2.1 goals a game from their last ten matches. They scored an extremely presentable total of 21 goals, while also conceding 13 times. This is a total average of 1.3 per game, in which they managed two clean sheets.

Lille ran out 4-1 winners the last time these two rivals played each other and are definitely planning to claim three points again on Saturday.

Auxerre vs Lille Prediction

Auxerre Form

Auxerre are enjoying their football currently with three wins on the bounce, and it began with a 1-0 win against Troyes. They went on to beat AC Ajaccio by 0-3, before also getting the better of Nantes in a 2-1 victory. In their last six Ligue 1 home matches, Auxerre have three wins, while they've drawn two and lost one. They scored five and conceded four goals.

Lille Form

Their past three matches saw Lille beating Lorient 3-1, losing 1-0 against Angers, and beating Montpellier by 2-1. Lille won twice, while also recording one draw, and three defeats in their last six away matches in the Ligue 1. The scoreline from these matches says eight goals conceded and nine scored.

Value hunters might think Auxerre is worth a shot, but in our view Lille are rightly favoured for the win. They contain enough quality to come home with a win from Stade de l'Abbe-Deschamps.

Auxerre show off a record of eight wins, eight draws and 15 defeats in the Ligue 1 this season. Lille put 16 wins, seven draws and eight defeats on the board in the Ligue 1.
