Auxerre
Auxerre are having an inconsistent season, to say the least after winning three drawing four, and losing eight. AJA have as a result 13 points and take the 18th position in the relegation zone. Coach Christoph Pellisier must have worked hard to improve his team’s performance.
Auxerre stats show the team has picked up an average of 0.87 points per league game since the beginning of the season. Their form stats indicate that in the last 8 league matches the team’s points per game value has been averaging 0.75, which is 13.8% lower than their current season’s average.
Monaco
Monaco entered the Word Cup Pause with a 2-3 home defeat to Marseille. The Monegasque had a five-match winning streak between the fifth and tenth rounds. However, that success didn’t last loan as Monaco won two drew two and lost two since then.
Nevertheless, Monaco are in the sixth spot, and with a win here, they can push for a top-four position which is their aim to finish in May. Monaco’s goal-scoring average increased in the last eight rounds as they netted 2.38 goals per game in that period as opposed to 1.93 in the season.
It is crucial for both teams to have a positive restart after a 40-day break. Auxerre want to stay away from the relegation zone while Monaco’s interests are in the Champions League spots. To conclude, Monaco are the firm favorites to win here and we will back them to take all three points.
