AJ Auxerre

DLDLDD ⚠

AJ Auxerre will play in this fixture following on from a 2-2 Ligue 1 drawn game vs Brest.

In that game, AJ Auxerre had 36% possession and 11 attempts at goal with 6 of them on target. The scorer for AJ Auxerre was Gaëtan Perrin (18', 74'). Brest had 18 shots at goal with 6 of them on target. Abdoulaye Ndiaye (60') and Ludovic Ajorque (79') scored for Brest.

It’s not been often in recent games where AJ Auxerre haven’t conceded. The reality is that AJ Auxerre have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 games, leaking 11 goals during that time. Let’s see whether or not that trend will be sustained into this next match.

Pre-game facts show that AJ Auxerre:

• haven't been defeated in their previous 9 home league matches. A very good run at home.
• are without a win at home for the past 5 league games. Their supporters are understandably frustrated.

Marseille

DDLWWW 📈

Marseille head into the game after a 5-1 Ligue 1 win with the downing of St Etienne in their most recent match.

In that game, Marseille had 71% possession and 28 shots at goal with 14 on target. For Marseille, the goalscorers were Amine Gouiri (27', 60'), Mason Greenwood (50'), Michael Amir Murillo (58') and Adrien Rabiot (77'). Saint-Etienne had 7 shots on goal with 2 on target. Lucas Stassin (79') scored for St Etienne.

The numbers tell their own story, and Marseille have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, seeing opposing sides hit 7 goals overall. Defensively, Marseille could really do with shoring things up.

Going into this one, Marseille are undefeated by AJ Auxerre in games played away from home for the previous 5 league matches. Travelling fans have really enjoyed these clashes.

📰 Team News: AJ Auxerre

Lasso Coulibaly (Cruciate ligament injury) and Nathan Buayi-Kiala (Cruciate ligament injury) are not available for AJ Auxerre manager Christophe Pélissier.

In our view, AJA could go for a 4-2-3-1 system this time with Donovan Leon, Ki-Jana Hoever, Jubal, Clement Akpa, Gideon Mensah, Han-Noah Massengo, Elisha Owusu, Gaetan Perrin, Kevin Danois, Lassine Sinayoko and Thelonius Bair.

📋 Team News: Marseille

Owing to an otherwise full-strength group, there is only the lone fitness problem for the Marseille boss Roberto De Zerbi to contend with. Faris Moumbagna (Cruciate ligament tear) misses out for this game.

We are inclined to think that Les Olympiens seem likely to utilise a 3-4-1-2 formation, choosing Geronimo Rulli, Michael Murillo, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Derek Cornelius, Luis Henrique, Quentin Merlin, Ismael Bennacer, P. Hoejbjerg, Adrien Rabiot, Mason Greenwood and Amine Gouiri.

💭 Prediction

In this game, AJ Auxerre will likely create enough chances to get a goal against this Marseille team, but a single goal probably won’t quite be as many as the goals that they could concede.

Our tip is for a narrow 1-2 winning score for Marseille after the 90. Looking forward to this.
