Strasbourg have been in good shape lately, winning three of their last five games. Their attack has been lively, with plenty of goals scored in recent matches. Auxerre, on the other hand, are struggling. They have lost three of their last five games and have only won once in that period. Their defense has looked shaky, especially away from home.

When these two teams have met recently, the matches have been tight. The last game ended in a goalless draw, and three of the last four meetings have seen two goals or fewer. With Strasbourg in much better form and playing at home, this looks like a match they should win. A draw is possible, but an Auxerre victory looks unlikely.
