Auxerre vs Lille Preview 


Auxerre usually park the bus against top tier teams and focus on defending. This is how they held PSG to a goalless draw in December. Lille’s last three games have seen under 2.5 goals, so this is the best bet on Friday.

Stats


  • Auxerre have seen under 2.5 goals in 4 of their last 6 matches. 
  • Lille have seen under 2.5 goals in their last 3 matches. 

Head to Head 


Auxerre have a 16-10 advantage against Lille with 11 draws in 37 matches. 

They met in April 2023, the game ending in a 1-1 draw. 

Auxerre Form 


Auxerre have failed to secure a single victory in December, losing three of their last five matches while two ended without a winner. 

After starting the last month with a 2-0 loss at Toulouse, they held PSG to a goalless draw at home, followed by a 2-2 draw against Lens. 

Auxerre suffered a shock 1-0 home loss to a tier-two side Dunkerque in the French Cup, while starting 2025 with a 3-1 defeat at Strasbourg. They gained an early lead in that match through Hamed Junior Traore but then conceded three unanswered goals. 

Christophe Pelissier’s side is currently sitting in 9th place in Ligue 1 with 21 points from 16 matches. 

Auxerre Injuries & Team News 


Nathan Buayi-Kiala has been sidelined for months with cruciate ligament injury, but should be ready in a couple of weeks. 

Winger Lasso Coulibaly won’t be back until late May, recovering from an ACL injury. 

Hamed Junior Traore has been Auxerre’s top scorer with seven goals, while Gaetan Perrin is at five goals and four assists. 

Lille Form  


Lille achieved good results throughout December, claiming three victories in five appearances across competitions, while two matches ended without a winner. 

After starting the last month with unfortunate 2-2 draw at Montpellier, the Mastiffs claimed back to back home victories against Brest 3-1 and Sturm Graz 3-2 (Champions League), Jonathan David scoring four goals in these encounters. 

Their winning run has ended with a 1-1 draw against Marseille, while wrapping up the previous year with a 1-0 win at Rouen in the French Cup. 

Bruno Genesio’s side won just a point in their 2025 premiere in front of the home crowd against Nantes. They gained lead in the first half through Gabriel Gudmundsson, but conceded equalizer in the 70th minute.  

Lille Injuries & Team News 


Defender Samuel Umtiti has been sidelined for months due to a knee surgery. 

Right-back Tiago Santos is also out with a long-term injury. 

Edon Zhegrova and Ethan Mbappe are doubtful for this match. 

Striker Jonathan David is having an amazing season, scoring 17 goals across competitions (11 in Ligue 1, 6 in the Champions League).

Verdict

Auxerre are expected to place a lot of focus on defending here. They failed to score in two of their last three home games, while Lille’s last three outings have seen under 2.5 goals. A low-scoring affair is tipped in France.
