Prediction: 1-0
Auxerre
St Etienne will be aiming to build on their impressive win over Lille in their last home fixture when they host Auxerre at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard. Les Verts have shown are tough to beat at home, and another strong performance is expected from them. Meanwhile, the newcomers have been struggling on their travels, failing to pick up any points away from home.
The visitors will be without All Lasso Coulibaly, Ange Loic N’Gatta, and Ousoumane Camara with injuries, which is yet another reason why away win should not be considered. On the other hand, St Etienne head into this match with a fully fit squad and no fresh injury concerns, giving them a significant edge. While Auxerre will put up a fight, St Etienne’s recent form, especially at home, should see them through. Even though it could be a tightly contested affair, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match.
Highlighted Team (St Etienne):
Saint Etienne are a professional football club that compete in French Ligue 1. Les Verts were founded in 1919 by employees of a grocery store chain based in Saint Etienne. Saint Etienne wear green shirts and white shorts when playing at home ground and they play their home matches at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard.
The stadium was opener on 13 September, 1931 and following the renovation the capacity of the venue increased to 42 000. In 1981 les Verts won their tenth Ligue 1 trophy, but they have been in the shadow of Ligue 1 giants Lyon and PSG in the 21st century.
Speaking of the club’s European success, Saint Etienne made it to the European Cup (Champions League) final in 1976, but Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich proved to be a big catch for the French outfit. Anyhow, that is regarded as the club’s biggest success. It has to be noted that the likes of Michel Platini, Jacques Santini, Laurent Blanc and Aime Jacquet all played for Saint Etienne in the past.
