Strasbourg vs AJ Auxerre Prediction: Auxerre will settle for a draw

It's 3 matches without a win for Strasbourg and the tension is getting high as they chase a much-needed win against Auxerre. There's been a few eyebrows raised at the Auxerre camp too, as they have gone two matches without a win. These two teams have the same points around the relegation area. The heat is on and both teams need points to survive the battle.

Strasbourg's commitment to surviving the relegation zone is being questioned with recent performances. They have not won in their last 3 matches and their lastest match ended in a 2-2 draw against Olympique Marseille. Strasbourg put up some late drama, as they grabbed two late goals in the 88th and 89th minute through Jean-Eudes Aholou. Marseille were reduced to 10 men in the 29th minute of that game.

In their last 5 matches, Strasbourg recorded 2 draws, 2 losses and 1 win.

Strasbourg are 15th in the Bundesliga table, with 23 points from 27 matches. They have 4 wins, 11 draws and 12 losses.

Team Streak:- no wins(3), less than 2.5 goals (⅘), less than 4.5 cards (8/10), less than 10.5 corners (5/5).

Auxerre on the other hand are getting the results that can help them climb off the relegation zone and a similar result will be a major boost. Auxerre played a 0-0 draw against Stade Rennais in their last match. Nice were not bright on that day, but rather than lose, they settled for 1 point instead. They managed 32% possession, 0 shot on target and 8 corner kicks. They also played a 1-1 draw against Nice in the previous match and in their last 5 matches, they had 3 draws and 2 wins.

AJ Auxerre are 17th on the table, with 23 points from 27 matches. They had 5 wins, 8 draws and 14 losses. 

Team Streak:- No losses (5), less than 2.5 goals (⅘), less than 4.5 cards (8/10), less than 10.5 corners (5/5).

Strasbourg and Auxerre have played over 20 matches throughout their history. Strasbourg and Auxerre both have 8 wins and 4 matches ended in a draw.

• Less than 2.5 goals were scored in (⅚) matches.
• Less than 4.5 cards were shown in (9/10).

I'm totally rooting for Auxerre here. Not as outright winners though. Auxerre would rather settle for a draw than lose this game. So I think they'll sit back and frustrate the home side and hope to snatch a narrow win.
