An open game: both sides to score, with Cameron Archer and Amine Gouiri both getting shots away.
Our model gives AJ Auxerre 31%, the draw 25% and Marseille 43%, so Marseille start as favourites. Our predicted score is AJ Auxerre 1–2 Marseille, the likeliest Marseille win score (9%). We expect 3.1 goals in total: 1.4 for AJ Auxerre and 1.7 for Marseille. Both sides are more likely than not to score (61%) and three or more goals is 59%.
In their last six games AJ Auxerre have two wins, one draw and three defeats, while Marseille have five wins, no draws and one defeat. AJ Auxerre lost their most recent match and Marseille won theirs. Cameron Archer (AJ Auxerre) is the player we expect to shoot most, with 2.4 shots if they start. Amine Gouiri (Marseille) leads for shots on target, at 1.1. Christ Makosso of AJ Auxerre is the most booked player in either squad, once every 2 games in 2026/27.
We expect AJ Auxerre to have 12.1 shots (4.5 on target) and Marseille 14.3 (4.9 on target), and corners at 4.5 to 4.9. Of their last five meetings on our records, AJ Auxerre have won two, Marseille three. The last meeting ended Marseille 1–0 Auxerre, in Mar 2026. For Bawler's pick we have gone with Both Teams to Score, Over 21.5 Total Shots, Cameron Archer 1+ Shot and Amine Gouiri 1+ Shot. The chance all four land is 46% on our numbers, so the fair price is 6/5, or 2.17.
