Looking at recent matches, Auxerre has been in a tough spell. They have lost three of their last five games and have only won once in that time. Estac Troyes is also struggling, having lost four of their last five matches, though they did manage a strong win away from home. Both teams are clearly out of form.

When these two sides have met before, the games often feature goals. In their last six meetings, nearly all of them have seen both teams score, with many ending with three or more total goals. This history, combined with both teams' recent struggles, suggests this could be an open and close match. This looks like a match that could go either way, so a draw is a likely outcome.
