Auxerre vs Lyon is an interesting match to bet. We know, even play away, Lyon is the favorite to win because have a solid squad and better statistics than an opponent. But, Lyon must not underestimate Auxerre, because when we look at the 2 last matches Auxerre seems to begin to try to leave the degradation zone, with 2 has drawn, Auxerre is looking forward to far away from that zone. If you are brave and look the habits stat, bet on draw will make 5x your money.
3 hours left to start the game Auxerre fighting to stay in the league and today they are going to have a hard game especially when you think Lyon is 9th in the table while Auxerre is 19th also recently Auxerre could win any game in their league they should not expect for a win today and that's I guess Auxerre will play for one point today with a defensive playing syle but if they win they can have 18 points and they will have chance to run away from the danger zone. So my prediction for this match is a 1-0 for Lyon.
I can't expect anything from Auxerre in this game, their only advantage today is playing at home. If you look at it from a game standpoint and also statistics, nothing can be relied on. I think Lyon should be able to take advantage of their opportunities in this match because if you look at the opponents they will face, it will be a shame if they miss this good opportunity.
Since Ligue 1 began this season, I wanted teams like Lyon, Monaco, Marseille to be protagonists and take first place against PSG, currently the advantage that PSG has has made them have the privilege of losing and drawing and that those results no. They are not affected at all by the point advantage.
The rest of the team, their biggest mistake is that they lose games when they shouldn't, if they want to reach the level of PSG they have to win, that is, not lose too much, drawing games is the best option they can do, however these teams continue fighting to be second in Ligue 1, in this they are, Auxerre and other teams that do not descend further.
Paris saint Germain will play against nantes tomorrow in their stadium and this is the last match before the second keg against Bayern munchen, wining this match and scoring many goals will certainly give the team so much confidence for Wednesday match, i believe psg isn't yet elimination and Wednesday match will bring some surprises to psg fans
After that fixture with Nantes, the next match of PSG in the Champions League. Don't you think otherwise that they will like to reserve their good players such as messi and mbappe for the Champions League. They really have to reserve this players because Neymar Junior is already injured, and if Messi or Mbappe get injured again. It will be a difficult match for PSG to contend.
So you might not witness many goals in that match as usual.
I agree with you that it is possible for Paris Saint Germain to rest their main players so they can be fitter for their Champions League second leg clash. Don't mean to belittle Nantes, but it looks like they can beat them without some of their star players. I believe they are more focused on the Champions League matches than in Ligue 1, because their main target this season is to win the Champions League title they have wanted for a long time.
Nantes is a very good team and it has everything to win, there are also things to note that for the Nantes game Ney will not play due to his ankle injury and he will not be able to play in the round of 16 games against Bayern either and that is worrying because PSG needs all the help possible to win that game, Bayern has a 1-goal advantage and if Bayern chooses to defend that score as a strategy it will be very difficult for Mbappé and Messi to score goals, things are getting complicated for them to PSG and they have to come out with everything if they want to qualify.
