The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Auxerre are in the 11th position while the guesting Paris worry at 17th.
Auxerre form and stats
5-7-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Ligue 2 numbers at home for Auxerre so far this season.
Auxerre are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-1 away versus Le Havre. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Niort in a game that was won 3-1.
The manager J. Furlan will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Orléans in only four days.

Paris form and stats
4-5-6 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Paris in their Ligue 2 matches away.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Nancy in just four days.
