Lyon is coming into this match with a mixed run of form, having won two of their last five games but also suffering a loss and two draws. They are playing at home, which often helps. Auxerre, on the other hand, is struggling to find a win recently, drawing three and losing two of their last five matches, so they haven't been in the best shape.

Looking at recent meetings between these two, the games have often been quite close and tight, with several draws and low-scoring results. Their most recent match earlier this season ended in a goalless draw. Considering Lyon's slightly better recent results and home advantage, they appear more likely to win this game.
