Match Preview
Auxerre hosts Lens at the Stade de l'Abbé Deschamps in what promises to be an intriguing Ligue 1 clash on Sunday. Auxerre's recent form has been inconsistent, with a record of one win, one draw, and three losses in their last five matches. This lack of stability could be a concern as they face a Lens side that has shown resilience, managing two wins and two draws in their last five outings. The home advantage may play a crucial role, but Auxerre will need to tighten their defence to avoid conceding, particularly against a Lens team that has been effective in attack.
Historically, the head-to-head results between these two teams have been evenly matched, with both sides winning four of their last ten encounters. Notably, five of those matches have seen over 2.5 goals, indicating a trend towards high-scoring affairs. With both teams capable of finding the back of the net, this match could see goals from both sides, making the "Both Teams To Score" market an appealing option for punters.
