Monaco vs Auxerre Betting Tips - Monaco to Win

Monaco will be looking to maintain their Ligue 1 winning form when they host relegation-threatened Auxerre this weekend.

Les Rouges et Blancs return to Ligue 1 action after a tough Champions League defeat at Inter on Wednesday. Reduced to ten men after just 12 minutes following the dismissal of teenage defender Christian Mawissa, a hat-trick from Lautaro Martinez ensured a miserable night at the San Siro for Adi Hutter´s side.

Despite that defeat, Monaco moved safely into the UCL playoffs section, finishing 13th in the table with a respectable tally of 13 points.

While consistency has proven an issue for the home side, Monaco have won four of their last six games at Stade Louis II with only PSG and Benfica leaving the French Riviera with victory during that period.

Auxerre makes the trip to the south of France having endured a miserable eight-game winless run over the past two months. Christophe Pélissier´s side were held to a 1:1 draw against Saint Etienne in their most recent Ligue 1 fixture.

On the road, AJA have struggled to find any kind of form this season, with defeats suffered in seven of their nine previous away Ligue 1 matches, including each of their last three.

Auxerre fell to a 2:0 loss at Angers in their most recent away fixture, and a similar outcome should be expected this weekend with Monaco in decent home form.

After their midweek disappointment in Milan, I expect Monaco to regain the winning touch with a comfortable victory at the Stade Louis II expected on Saturday.
