Auxerre vs Angers prediction
Auxerre moved on from Christophe Pelissier over the summer and replaced him with former Lens and Stade Brest boss Will Still. They are expected to be more proactive this time around and that was on display as they succumbed to a 5-2 hammering at the hands of last season’s runners’ up Lens on the opening day last weekend.
Angers lost manager Alexandre Dujeux to Lorient and have replaced him with former Paris FC boss Stephane Gilli. Angers started the 2026-27 Ligue 1 campaign with a 2-0 defeat at home to Lille due to first half goals scored by Olivier Giroud and Tiago Santos at Stade Raymond Kopa.
This is a clash of styles and a low-scoring encounter is to be expected as Auxerre seek to rectify just how open they were at Stade Bollaert-Delelis last week.
Auxerre vs Angers tip: Under 2.5 goals
