Auxerre to Win
Auxerre host Rodez, who are positioned in 19th spot in Ligue 2, in the Coupe de France’s Round of 16 on Wednesday, and though Christophe Pélissier’s side are toiling in Ligue 1, they should be able to enjoy some cup success in midweek. In the previous round of the tournament, Auxerre faced Niort – who currently sit in 20th place in the second tier – and they mullered them 4-0. That result should give them the impetus they need to make light work of Rodez in this one.
Over 1.5 Auxerre Goals
Our second prediction dips into the goal markets and we’re tipping Auxerre to enjoy a productive evening in the final third. As we discussed above, the hosts put four goals past Ligue 2’s Niort in the competition’s last phase and they face Rodez on Wednesday, who are a similar outfit in terms of quality. We expect Auxerre to make full use of their superior class, and a stake on AJA in the over 1.5 team goals market could be worth considering.

Auxerre vs Rodez Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for Wednesday’s Coupe de France skirmish between Auxerre and Rodez below.
Auxerre
Auxerre have an empty treatment room at present with back-up midfielder Kays Ruiz-Atil, who is ill, listed as their only current absentee. Auxerre held Reims to a 0-0 draw in their last match at the weekend, and relegation is still a real possibility for AJA, who are second from bottom in Ligue 1.
Predicted Lineup for Auxerre: Radu – Raveloson, Jubal, Toure, Mensah – Massengo, Toure, Hein, Autret, da Costa – Abline
Rodez
Rodez famously knocked Monaco out of the Coupe de France in an earlier round, though they needed spot kicks to see of National 2 minnows Grasse in the previous phase. Rodez have been using a 3-5-2 formation in the cup, and the same set-up should be on show again on Wednesday.
Predicted Lineup for Rodez: Cibois – boma, Vandenabeele, Mouyokolo – Senaya, Boissier, Valerio, Rajot, Abdallah – Pembele, Mendes
Player to Watch – Gaetan Perrin
Gaetan Perrin didn’t feature for Auxerre at the weekend, though the midfielder will hope to make the XI for Wednesday’s cup clash, especially after his heroics in the tournament’s previous round. Perring managed to score two of Auxerre’s four goals in their 4-0 win at Niort and with a taste for netting in the cup, the 26-year-old will be determined to showcase his skills if selected again.
