Auxerre vs Toulouse Prediction
Both teams have suffered similar issues this season: inability to keep goals out at the back. It’s hardly surprising, thought, as they were both promoted from Ligue 2 in the summer.
However, Toulouse have been the more reliable side overall, and they certainly haven’t been so profligate in front of goal as Auxerre. Given that they’re coming of a thumping win in the Coupe de France, their confidence should take them through to a win.
