General match analysis

Auxerre made a poor start to the league campaign, suffering three defeats with a 4:11 goal difference. However, they have won 2 of their last five matches, while Nice have failed to win any of their five most recent games. At home, Auxerre create more chances, averaging 20 shots and 7 on target per match with an xG of 1.97, compared with Nice’s away figures of 16 shots, 4 on target and an xG of 1.87. Nice have scored just 1 goal in three league fixtures and failed to find the net in their only away match despite recording 1.87 xG, highlighting a clear finishing problem. Both defenses are vulnerable, as each team concedes an average of 3 goals in the analyzed sample and neither has kept a clean sheet. Home advantage, the higher quality of chances created and the better recent winning form give Auxerre a slight edge, although a draw remains a realistic outcome.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The strongest signal is Nice’s very poor finishing: the visitors average 0.0 goals in away matches, failed to score in 100% of them, and BTTS - Yes occurred in only 0% of their games. Nice have also scored just 0.2 goals per match across their last five fixtures, with Goal/Goal landing in only 20% of those games. Auxerre average 0.5 goals at home and keep a clean sheet in 50% of their matches, further increasing the risk that the visitors will fail to score. Although Nice’s away xG stands at a solid 1.87 and Auxerre conceded 2.2 goals across their last five matches, the visitors’ current 0% scoring conversion and overall goal record provide stronger support for a BTTS - No scenario, meaning that at least one team is expected not to score.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The projected total of 2.45 goals is driven primarily by chance quality: Auxerre’s average home xG is 1.17, while Nice allows 1.49 xG away from home. Nice generates an average of 1.87 xG in away matches, whereas Auxerre allows opponents 1.01 xG, reducing the risk of a completely cagey game. In their last five matches, Auxerre conceded as many as 2.2 goals per game, with 60% of those matches going Over 2.5 goals. However, Nice scored just 0.2 goals per game in their last five outings, which makes higher lines clearly less reliable. The strongest option is Over 1.5 goals, as both teams’ xG metrics suggest at least one genuine scoring chance each, while Nice’s away matches went Over this line 100% of the time.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest scenario is a draw at half-time and a draw at full-time, as Nice have drawn 80% of their last five matches, while Auxerre recorded a half-time draw in 50% of their appearances. The visitors are currently scoring just 0.2 goals per match, failed to score before the break in 80% of their recent games, and did not score after half-time in any of those matches. Auxerre have greater attacking potential, with an average xG of 1.17 compared with Nice’s 1.01 xGA, yet the hosts conceded an average of 2.2 goals in their last five matches. At the same time, Nice have defended more effectively in the current match data, conceding an average of 0.8 goals across their last five fixtures, which limits Auxerre’s chances of maintaining a lead. The visitors’ low goal output and high draw rate point towards a cautious, evenly balanced pattern in both halves.
