Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)
In a few minutes there will be a match between Auxerre vs St Etienne, both are promoted teams but St Etienne is in the relegation zone at the moment and for Auxerre is in 11th place. They have a gap of five points and also, these two teams both have better results for home games than away games. Thus, Auxerre will have a better chance of winning but even so, I sure St Etienne will also play well because basically St Etienne still has a good chance to get out of the relegation zone. Therefore, although Auxerre has a good chance of winning, it will certainly not be easy because it is possible that thismatch will end in a draw.
It was a difficult match for both teams, it is not easy to get out of the relegation zone, but the fact that the match ended in a draw was a good result for Saint-Étienne. When we come to the last weeks of the league, they will see how valuable the 1 point they earned this week is. Maybe, thanks to this 1 point, they will manage to stay in this league for another year.
Earning points from your opponents who are not very strong is more valuable than in normal matches. They are your real competitors, the fact that they do not gain points is a benefit for you
