ORANGE LIGUE 1 : AUXERRE v ST ETIENNE

REASONS TO BACK: Auxerre win

The hosts have a 59% win rate at home generally stretching back to 2002-03, including 7/14 (50%) this season. Also, St Etienne have conceded in 14/15 (93%) away games this season, and Auxerre have won 17/22 (77%) when scoring at home since the start of 2006-07.

REASONS TO LAY: +2.5 goals

Only 2/14 (14%) of Auxerre's home games this season and 8/33 (24%) since coach Jean Fernandez took over in 2006 have had +2.5 goals. Only 6/15 (40%) of St Etienne's away games have had +2.5 goals this season

IN-PLAY: Auxerre to win if they score first

The hosts are a stunning W55-D6-L0 (90% win rate) after scoring first at home since 2002-03. St Etienne have yet to win after conceding first on the road since promotion in 2004 - they are W0-D8-L31 (79% loss rate) in such games. Auxerre would therefore appear to have an 86% chance of winning if they net the opener.
