The Matchday 6 clash in Ligue 1 between PSG and Auxerre will take place on September 27 at Parc des Princes in Paris. PSG vs. Auxerre: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
PSG
The Parisians kicked off Ligue 1 with four consecutive victories and remained the only team not to drop points in the current tournament until last Monday. However, in the previous round, the club suffered a defeat in a crucial away match against Marseille. This ended PSG's six-match winning streak in the league, and it was the first time in 25 Ligue 1 games that Luis Enrique's side failed to score. Most importantly, PSG lost their top spot in the table, with Monaco overtaking them.
- The team has scored in their last 35 home matches in the French championship.
- PSG's uncompromising streak in this tournament lasts for 9 games (6 wins, 3 losses).
- The Parisians have scored no more than 2 goals in 9 of their last 12 matches in Ligue 1.
Predicted lineup for PSG (3-5-2)
Lucas Chevalier – Illya Zabarnyi, Marquinhos, William Pacho – Achraf Hakimi, Fabian Ruiz, Vitinha, Warren Zaire-Emery, Nuno Mendes – Goncalo Ramos, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Due to injuries, key defender Marquinhos, midfielder Joao Neves, and forwards Bradley Barcola, Desire Doue, and Ousmane Dembele, who won the Ballon d'Or this week, are unavailable.
Auxerre
After a victory in the first round of the championship, the team faced a series of setbacks, but last week the club secured an important three points in a home game against Toulouse. This ended an unpleasant streak of three consecutive Ligue 1 defeats, and Auxerre improved their position in the standings, climbing to 10th place. It's worth noting that Christophe Pelissier's side has yet to earn points away from home this season.
- Auxerre has not won in 6 of their last 8 matches in Ligue 1 (1 draw, 5 losses).
- At least 2 goals have been scored in 17 of the club's last 19 away games in the championship.
- The team's uncompromising streak in this tournament is 6 matches (2 wins, 4 losses).
Predicted lineup for Auxerre (5-4-1)
Donovan Leon – Fredrik Oppegard, Gideon Mensah, Telly Sive, Francisco Sierralta, Marvin Senaya – Elisha Owusu, Keven Danoua, Danny Lauder, Lassine Sinayoko – Sekou Mara.
Midfielder Josue Casimir's suspension has ended, but defender Fredrik Oppegard is now serving a suspension. Another defender, Marvin Senaya, is doubtful due to an injury. Midfielder Oussama El Azzouzi and defender Sinaly Diomande are also injured.

PSG vs. Auxerre: Match Prediction
PSG is traditionally considered the clear favorite, as in any other match in the French championship. However, it's worth noting that the team is not flawless in defense. Luis Enrique's side has conceded in 13 of their last 17 Ligue 1 matches. At home, the situation is similar – in their last 13 home league matches, the Parisians managed to keep a clean sheet only 3 times.
Now, PSG will host Auxerre, who have been collecting points with varying success, but even in defeats, they rarely fail to score. The club has found the net in 14 of their last 15 Ligue 1 games. Specifically in away matches, it's notable that only in their last game did their 9-match scoring streak in the French championship end.
Most likely, regardless of the outcome, Auxerre will manage to trouble PSG with at least one goal. Prediction – Auxerre Individual Total Over 0.5
