Auxerre vs Lyon Prediction and Betting Tips | November 23rd 2025

Auxerre play host to Lyon in a Ligue 1 match at the Stade Abbe-Deschamps this Sunday.

Auxerre are currently at the bottom of the Ligue 1 table and are five points adrift of their nearest rivals. Lyon, meanwhile, are in 7th but could climb into the top four with a victory here.

So will Auxerre manage to claim some valuable points, or will Lyon condemn them to further difficulties?

Auxerre vs Lyon Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

• Lyon have only lost once to Auxerre in their last six meetings, back in February 2023. More worryingly for the home side, Lyon won their last visit to the Stade Abbe-Deschamps in April, coming away with a 1-3 victory.
• Auxerre's last match before the international break saw them lose 2-0 to Angers in what was their fourth loss in a row. Overall, Auxerre have now failed to win any of their last seven games, with their last victory coming over Toulouse on September 21st.
• Lyon were also beaten in their final game before the international break, but in their case, they were defeated by champions Paris Saint-Germain, who needed an injury-time winner to claim a 2-3 victory. However, considering all competitions, Lyon are now winless in four matches.
• Auxerre's lack of goals is now a real worry, as not only have they lost their last four matches, but they have also failed to score in any of them. With just seven goals scored thus far, they are currently Ligue 1's most toothless side.
• One worry for Lyon coming into this game is their relatively weak record away from home this season. In eight away games across all competitions, they have only won three and have not tasted victory on the road since September 28th.

Auxerre vs Lyon Prediction

Lyon are in relatively poor form right now - failing to win in their last four - and are not that good away, but this game should represent a chance for them to turn things around.

Auxerre's form has been utterly woeful as of late, they look toothless in front of goal, and they have only won twice all season. Essentially, they look to be in real danger of relegation.

It's hard to see where Auxerre's next goal will come from, so despite an international break to reset things, the prediction here is an away win.

Prediction: Auxerre 0-2 Lyon
