Auxerre vs Strasbourg preview: Defensive weakness

Key stats

• There were fewer than 11 corners in each of the last seven meetings between the two sides.
• AJA have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last three matches.
• Le Racing have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last nine games.

Correct score prediction: Auxerre 1-2 Strasbourg

Auxerre sit 16th in the Ligue 1 table with 18 points from 24 matches and are desperate for points to move away from the relegation zone.

Christopher Pelissier’s side have managed only one win in their last nine league games and are winless in the last two.

Strasbourg, meanwhile, sit eighth in the table and are pushing for a place in Europe next season. They head into this game in a confident mood, having remained unbeaten in their last four matches across all competitions.

Both teams have struggled to keep clean sheets, while nine of Strasbourg’s last 10 matches have produced over 2.5 goals. Therefore, we expect another high-scoring game, with the visitors likely to claim all three points.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Strasbourg clearly favoured

• HOME: 23/10 (3.3) – 30.3%
• DRAW: 9/4 (3.25) – 30.8%
• AWAY: 1/1 (2.0) – 50%

*Odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Strasbourg have lost only once in their last six matches and head into this game on the back of a 2-1 win over Reims in the Coupe de France quarter-finals.

Gary O'Neil's side are clear favourites to win this match and are priced at 1/1 (2.0), implying a 50% probability of victory.

Both teams have scored in each of Strasbourg’s last nine games, making BTTS – Yes at 4/5 (1.8) an appealing option.

Auxerre preview: Need a big performance

Goals have been a major issue for Auxerre this season, as they are the lowest-scoring side in the top flight with just 19 goals.

However, they have shown signs of improvement recently, losing only once in their last five matches, which offers renewed optimism in their battle for survival.

Auxerre are dealing with several injury concerns ahead of this fixture. Nathan Buayi-Kiala is ruled out with a cruciate ligament injury, while Lasso Coulibaly is carrying a knock.

Francisco Sierralta, however, returned to action last weekend against Lorient after recovering from a muscle problem.

Meanwhile, Romain Faivre, who is on loan from Bournemouth, continues to be sidelined with an ankle injury, and Oussama El Azzouzi remains a doubt due to a hamstring issue.

Predicted lineup: Leon (GK), Senaya, Diomande, Okoh, Mensah, Owusu, Danois, Casimir, Oppegard, Namaso & Sinayoko

Last five matches

• 01/03/26: Lorient 2-2 Auxerre (Ligue 1)
• 22/02/26: Auxerre 0-3 Rennes (Ligue 1)
• 15/02/26: Metz 1-3 Auxerre (Ligue 1)
• 08/02/26: Auxerre 0-0 Paris FC (Ligue 1)
• 01/02/26: Toulouse 0-0 Auxerre (Ligue 1)

Strasbourg preview: Eyeing to extend their unbeaten run

Despite their impressive recent form, Strasbourg have struggled to turn draws into victories, winning only three of their last 12 matches. This fixture offers them a good opportunity to claim all three points.

Le Racing remain firmly in contention for a place in either the UEFA Europa League or the Conference League, but they will need to maintain a consistent run of wins in the remaining games to achieve that goal.

Predicted lineup: Penders (GK), Doue, Doukoure, Omobamidele, Chilwell, El Mourabet, Barco, Moreira, Enciso, Godo & Panichelli

Last five matches

• 03/03/26: Strasbourg 2-1 Reims (Coupe de France)
• 27/02/26: Strasbourg 1-1 Lens (Ligue 1)
• 22/02/26: Strasbourg 3-1 Lyon (Ligue 1)
• 14/02/26: Marseille 2-2 Strasbourg (Ligue 1)
• 08/02/26: Le Havre 2-1 Strasbourg (Ligue 1)

Player to watch: Auxerre vs Strasbourg

Barco initially joined Strasbourg on loan from Brighton & Hove Albion, and later the move was made permanent.

The 21-year-old Argentine is a natural left-back, but he has been used as a central midfielder this season.

This change in role has seen a massive transformation in his game, as he has shown great control and maturity, even playing in a defensive midfield role at times.

Barco has started in 20 games in Ligue 1, scoring one goal and registering four assists, which underlines his growing importance to the side.
