Auxerre return to the Stade Abbe-Deschamps chasing a third straight home win, and we like the hosts to see off promoted Le Mans in this Ligue 1 clash on Sunday at 4.15pm (UK time).
Anthony Eadson’s Auxerre vs Le Mans predictions, best bets and score prediction are below.
Premium Tips
Both of our Auxerre vs Le Mans best bets steer clear of the headline markets and dig into the likely shape of the game. Here are the two picks we fancy most at the Stade Abbe-Deschamps.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Auxerre to win | 11/10 (Betfred) | Auxerre are chasing a third straight home win and have scored eight goals in three games at the Stade Abbe-Deschamps. Le Mans are still without an away win and arrive on the back of a 3-0 home loss to Toulouse, which followed a 3-1 defeat at PSG. The visitors have lost three of their last four, so the hosts face a side short of confidence. Auxerre to win at 11/10 with Betfred is the best price for the home win. |
| Over 11.5 total corners | 13/5 (Ladbrokes) | Auxerre’s league games have averaged 13.2 corners, with 5.6 for and 7.6 against, so the over 11.5 line is a fair test rather than a stretch. Le Mans’ games have averaged 8.6, but they will need to come forward at some stage if they fall behind. Auxerre concede plenty of corners even when in front, and that pattern should keep the count ticking over. Ladbrokes’ 13/5 on over 11.5 total corners is the price to take. |

How Auxerre go into the game
Auxerre go into the weekend in decent heart after a 3-1 win at Le Havre last time out, a result that eased the sting of a 4-1 loss at Rennes. The hosts had earlier beaten Nice 1-0 and Brest 2-1 on home soil, both coming after a 3-1 defeat at Lyon.
That leaves Auxerre 12th in Ligue 1 with nine points from seven games, having won three and lost four. Their home record reads two wins and a single defeat, with four scored and four conceded at the Stade Abbe-Deschamps, so we know they can be got at even on their own patch.
How Le Mans go into the game
Le Mans arrive on the back of a chastening 3-0 home loss to Toulouse, a third defeat that followed a 3-1 reverse at PSG. The promoted side had shown better signs before that, beating Lorient 2-1 at home and drawing 2-2 with Lens and 1-1 at Nice.
Some honesty is needed about their start: Le Mans sit 16th with six points, winning only once in seven and yet to keep a clean sheet. More telling for Sunday, they have managed just one point on the road, with no away win in three, scoring four and conceding seven. That is a thin platform from which to upset an Auxerre side with momentum.
Auxerre vs Le Mans head-to-head
There is no recent league history between these two to lean on, with Le Mans only back in Ligue 1 this season after promotion. That makes current form and home advantage the sharper guide to Sunday’s outcome.
Auxerre vs Le Mans predictions & betting tips
| Our Prediction | Odds & Bookmaker | Confidence | Why We’re Backing It |
|---|---|---|---|
| Over 11.5 total corners | 13/5 (Ladbrokes) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Auxerre’s league games have averaged 13.2 corners, with 5.6 for and 7.6 against, so the over 11.5 line is a fair test rather than a stretch. |
| Auxerre to win | 11/10 (Betfred) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Two home wins on the bounce for Auxerre, with Le Mans still without an away victory. |
| Both teams to score | 4/7 (William Hill) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Le Mans are yet to keep a clean sheet, while Auxerre have scored in all seven games. |
| Over 2.5 goals | 8/11 (bet365) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Auxerre’s seven matches have brought 28 goals, a shade over four per game this term. |
| Auxerre 2-1 Le Mans | 15/2 (Betway) | ⭐⭐ | Le Mans have conceded 15 times in seven but netted in six of those outings. |
Auxerre vs Le Mans score prediction
Home advantage and a Le Mans side still finding their feet at this level point us towards a narrow victory for the hosts. With Auxerre scoring in every game and the visitors unable to keep a clean sheet, we expect goals at both ends before the home side edge it. Score prediction: Auxerre 2-1 Le Mans.
