Auxerre vs Lille prediction and betting tips on January 10, 2025
Game Prediction
In the 17th round of Ligue 1, on January 10, 2025, Auxerre will face Lille. Both clubs are aiming for high positions and will try to secure a win in this match.
Our prediction for the Auxerre vs Lille match:
Auxerre was relegated from the top division in 2023. However, they managed to top Ligue 2 and earned an early return to the elite level. Last season, Lille performed quite well. While they were overtaken by the surprising Brest, they finished strong in fourth place.
This position allowed the team, now under Bruno Génésio (who replaced Paulo Fonseca), to start in the Champions League. Though only in the qualifying rounds, they managed to advance, and in the group stage, the French side won four games and gathered 13 points, despite an opening loss to Sporting Lisbon. Interestingly, after that defeat, they went unbeaten, eventually finishing 2024 in fourth place. In January, they were limited to a draw with Nantes—perhaps they expected more. The newcomers performed admirably in the league but struggled in December, earning just two points from three rounds and being knocked out of the cup by Dunkirk from Ligue 2. In the last round, they lost 1-3 away to Strasbourg.
Auxerre averages a little over 1.5 goals scored and conceded per match. Lille, on the other hand, scores 1.63 goals per match and concedes exactly one goal per game.
