Match description
I back Auxerre to win (1): the hosts have a stronger home defence — conceding 1.00 goal per game at home, xG against 1.25 and 44% clean sheets, whereas Nice concede 1.94 goals away, xG against 1.80 and only 13% clean sheets. In attack the differences are marginal: Auxerre score 1.00 goal at home with an xG of 1.30 and 3.75 shots on target, while Nice have 1.06 goals away with xG 1.12 and 3.38 shots on target, with conversion 9% versus Nice’s 11%. In the last 5 matches Auxerre have scored 8 and conceded 7 (form 1-3-1, PPG 1.2), and Nice 5 scored and 3 conceded (form 1-4-0, PPG 1.4), indicating Nice are more prone to draws. Although Auxerre failed to score in 50% of home games (which may limit the number of goals), the hosts’ defensive edge against Nice’s away vulnerability leads me to choose the home side.
