Auxerre vs Saint-Etienne prediction and betting tips on January 24, 2025

Game Prediction

Auxerre vs Saint-Etienne will compete in the 19th round of the French Ligue 1 on January 24, 2025. The guests are fighting for survival and will try to take points in a meeting with the middle of the division even on its field.
Our prediction for the match Auxerre vs Saint-Etienne
Both clubs played in the second division of the country last season. As a result, “the Burgundians” were able to win 1st place there. “The Stéphanois” then finished in 3rd position. Still, that was enough to go to the play-offs, where they were able to knock out Metz and join their “colleague” on the way to the top.
Being already in the Ligue 1, Christophe Pélissier’s footballers, after a difficult start in the autumn, had an excellent stretch with 5 wins in 7 rounds. And it seemed they decided to calm down, because then the club took the draws at the home arena, losing on the away field, and the team was eliminated from the cup, losing to Dunkirk. Speaking about the previous round, there was a 0-2 result in the game against Angers. “The Greens” fired Dall'Oglio last month, but even after that, the lion’s share of their matches ended in defeats. However, the club started January with a victory over Reims, and PSG won minimally in Paris – 0-1. It also clung to points with Nantes, having played a draw.
The hosts score 1.4 goals per match. They concede a little more, one and a half per round. The picture is quite sad for the guests: they score less than a goal and concede more than 2 goals per game.
