Monaco vs Auxerre predictions: Hosts to lead at the break

Key stats

  • Auxerre are currently on an eight-match winless streak across all competitions.
  • Monaco have won five consecutive clashes between these teams.
  • The hosts had the lead at the half-time break in four of their last five skirmishes with Auxerre.
  • Auxerre failed to score in five of their last six trips to Stade Louis II.

Correct score prediction: Monaco 2-0 Auxerre

Auxerre have been one of the worst travellers in the French top flight, losing seven of nine matches away from home (W1, D1). They are up against a Monaco side that won six of 10 home games.

Interestingly, Monaco are unbeaten in the last six clashes between these teams. On that note, it will likely be business as usual for the hosts.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Monaco are odds-on favourites

  • HOME: 7/20 (1.35) – 74.1%
  • DRAW: 17/4 (5.25) – 19%
  • AWAY: 13/2 (7.50) – 13.3%

*Odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Auxerre's struggles continued with a 1-1 draw against Saint-Etienne last weekend. They are now without a win in their last eight games. Although Christopher Pelissier's side have been one of the best home teams in Ligue 1, their record on the road does not inspire much confidence.

As it stands, Auxerre are 11th in the French top flight, eight places behind Monaco.

Given Auxerre's recent shortcomings, it is unsurprising that Monaco are the expected winners at 7/20 (1.35). Teams with these odds usually have a 74.1% probability of winning.

It is also important to note that fewer than three goals were scored in four of Auxerre's last five trips to this stadium. Keeping in mind that four of the visiting team's last five matches went south of the 2.5-goal marker, under 2.5 total goals has an appealing look at 7/4 (2.75). That one has a 36.4% chance of landing.

Most recent H2Hs: A one-sided affair

Not only have Auxerre lost five consecutive clashes between these teams, but they are also without a win in their last eight encounters with Monaco.

Player to watch: Ben Seghir

To be fair, Eliesse Ben Seghir has been going through a rough patch, as he has not scored or registered an assist in his last seven appearances in all competitions. However, the Moroccan teenager has a solid track record against Auxerre, having scored three times in the last three clashes between these teams. Ben Seghir will fancy his chances against Auxerre once again.
