Auxerre have won four of their five home games this term
The hosts have won three on the bounce at their own ground
Angers have won only twice in their first 11 games
Auxerre making the most of home advantage
Auxerre have taken 10 points from their last four league games and they head into this clash as favourites after a string of positive results at home. They meet an Angers side who have struggled for wins this term, drawing four and losing five of their 11 matches this term.
The hosts arguably produced their best result of the campaign on the road before the international break, claiming a 3-1 win away to Marseille. However, the bulk of their points have come at home, as they’ve won four of their five games at Stade de lAbbé Deschamps.
Auxerre have won each of their last three home matches, with their only loss coming against second-placed Monaco. They’ve beaten Nice, Reims, Brest and Rennes already, so fourth-bottom Angers shouldn’t pose too much of a problem.
The hosts have impressive attacking numbers behind them and they should claim the points against an Angers side who have kept one clean sheet this term.
