PSG vs Auxerre –Last weekend, PSG prevailed 1-2 on the road against Lorient to maintain its five-point lead atop the Ligue 1 standings.
Les Parisiens currently has 12 wins and 2 draws in 14 league games this season, and they will have a great opportunity to continue this impressive record against newly promoted Auxerre in the opening game of Sunday’s Ligue 1 schedule.
This is a genuine mismatch between the wealthiest and one of the budget-modest teams in French football’s top division.
Despite the fact that PSG will once again be without Lionel Messi, who missed the aforementioned victory at Lorient due to a minor injury, PSG are unquestionably huge favorites.
Before the World Cup in Qatar, we don’t think head coach Chris Galtier will take a chance on the Argentine superstar. In the 1-2 victory over Lorient last weekend, Neymar stood out with a goal and an assist.
He is now tied with Kylian Mbappe for the team’s top scorer (11 goals apiece). In the previous two rounds, Auxerre, which made its top-flight comeback after a decade, managed to score four points.
They used the easier schedule to their advantage, defeating Ajaccio 1-0 at home and holding Troyes to a 1-1 draw away from home. Chris Pellissier’s team has lost five of their last seven away league games, so they don’t have much to hope for tonight at Parc des Princes.
