Latest football match prediction: Auxerre vs Lens
After six rounds, Auxerre have only just escaped the relegation zone, leading Angers by just one point in the race to stay in Ligue 1.
Their biggest problem is scoring goals. Christophe Pélissier's team has only scored 4 goals since the start of the season, only more than Angers (3 goals).
A highlight is Auxerre's good performance at the Stade de l'Abbé Deschamps, where they secured all six points and kept two clean sheets. If they continue this weekend, they will equal the record for the longest home clean sheet streak in Ligue 1 from last season, with a run of three clean sheets at the end of 2024.
Their ability to maintain a lead has also improved significantly. Auxerre haven't dropped a single point from a lead this season, in contrast to the end of the 2024-25 season when they dropped as many as eight points in their last three games despite taking the lead.
Last season, Auxerre were unbeaten against Lens, even achieving the biggest away win in their history when they beat Les Sang et Or 4-0 in April.
Meanwhile, Lens are showing a contrasting performance at home and away. They have won their last two matches at Stade Bollaert-Delelis with a combined score of 6-1, but have failed to win their last two away games, not even scoring a single goal.
Including last season, Lens have earned points in 7 of their last 9 Ligue 1 matches, but have only won twice away from home.
After six rounds, Lens remains close to the European qualification spots, trailing only Lille in the Conference League race and two points behind Marseille, who are currently in third place.
Pierre Sage's team has only scored the opening goal twice this season, and had one comeback victory after being behind Brest at the end of August (3-1).
Lens are unbeaten in their last three away matches against Auxerre, including a 2-2 draw in this very same fixture last season.
