PSG vs Auxerre Prediction 17 May 2025
🔊 Will the "Burgundians" become a punching bag for the Parisians as they gear up for their most crucial matches of the season? In the 34th round of Ligue 1, Auxerre travel to the Parc des Princes aiming to hand PSG their third defeat of the season. Auxerre are one of the few teams that haven't lost to PSG this season, and they will try to join Nantes and Nice as the only teams to remain unbeaten against the Parisians. Meanwhile, PSG prepare for the first of their two remaining finals-the French Cup final against Reims on May 24.
Head-to-Head
📊 Auxerre are among the few teams Paris Saint-Germain have yet to defeat this season. Their first-round encounter ended in a goalless draw. Over the past decade, these teams have clashed just three times. Besides the current season, they met twice in the 22/23 season, with PSG emerging victorious with scores of 2-1 and 5-0. It's likely that PSG won't allow for an evenly matched game and will instead focus on executing their strategies against Reims. We suggest betting on a PSG win with a -1.5 handicap.

Paris Saint-Germain Team Overview
🔵 PSG have already clinched the Ligue 1 title. Now, they face two crucial finals: the Coupe de France final and the Champions League final. The match against Auxerre is viewed as an additional step in their preparation. Luis Enrique is likely to field a mixed lineup once again to ensure the starting players are in peak condition for these decisive matches. However, we've seen time and again that even their reserve squad can dismantle nearly any opponent.

Auxerre Team Overview
⚪️ Auxerre have been finishing the season fairly well for a mid-table team: 4 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses in their last 10 matches. With one round left in the championship, the "Burgundians" sit in 10th place and cannot climb any higher under any circumstances. The team is guaranteed to finish between 10th and 12th. All that's left is to spoil the champion's party and head into the break with a positive mindset.
🔗 Auxerre, lacking competitive motivation in recent matches, have shown inconsistency: 4 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses in 10 games. However, Auxerre have managed to score in 9 consecutive matches.

The last head-to-head between Auxerre and PSG ended with Auxerre leading the yellow card count 2-1. In their home games, PSG average 3 yellow cards (1.1-1.9 favoring the visitors). Auxerre's away matches see an average of 3.7 yellow cards (1.6-2.1 favoring the visitors). We suggest betting on Auxerre to win the yellow card battle.
⚽️ Goal Predictions
Auxerre have scored in 14 of their last 15 Ligue 1 matches. Meanwhile, PSG have both scored and conceded in 10 of their last 11 Ligue 1 games. Playing with a mixed lineup, PSG have seen both teams score in their last 5 Ligue 1 outings. Given these trends, we recommend betting on both teams to score.
🚩 Corner Predictions
PSG, regardless of their form, relentlessly attack from the start of their home matches. They have led at halftime in 13 of their last 16 home games. In 10 of those, they led by 2 or more corners. Auxerre have trailed at halftime in 12 of their last 15 away games, and by a margin of 2 or more corners in 9 instances. Therefore, we suggest betting on PSG to win the first-half corner battle with a handicap of (-1.5).
Editorial Prediction
Paris Saint-Germain maintain their lead thanks to a powerful attack and their dominance at home. While both teams are likely to score (considering PSG's tendency to concede), the main focus should be on the overall scoring potential of the match. Given current trends for both sides-PSG's frequent under 4.5 total goals at home and the visitors' lack of scoring efficiency (under 1.5 goals in many games)-we predict a PSG victory with a -1.5 goal handicap.No comments
