**🔵⚪ RC Strasbourg Alsace vs ⚪🔵 AJ Auxerre**
**Main Prediction: Strasbourg to Win (1)**
**Correct Score: Strasbourg 2-1 Auxerre**
**Both Teams to Score: Yes**
**Total Goals: Over 2.5 Goals**
RC Strasbourg Alsace welcome AJ Auxerre to the Stade de la Meinau on Sunday, November 1, 2026, for Matchday 9 of the 2026/27 French Ligue 1 season. Kickoff is scheduled for **15:00 French local time (CET)**.
This encounter brings together two teams attempting to establish greater consistency after difficult starts to the campaign.
Hugo Oliveira's Strasbourg enter the fixture in 16th position with seven points from eight league matches. Their opening victories against Lens and Troyes initially provided encouragement, but a sequence of four consecutive defeats has pushed the Alsatian club into the relegation playoff position.
The hosts suffered a disappointing 3-0 defeat against Rennes on October 25, following losses to Paris Saint-Germain, Nice and Paris FC.
Auxerre, managed by Will Still, occupy 12th position with ten points from eight matches. Their campaign has also been inconsistent, although recent results demonstrate considerable improvement.
The visitors have collected ten points from their last five fixtures, including victories against Nice, Brest and Le Havre. Their most recent encounter finished 1-1 against Le Mans, with Cameron Archer scoring the equalizer.
Both clubs have scored 12 league goals and conceded 18, producing identical goal differences of minus six. However, the distribution of those goals reveals important differences.
Strasbourg have struggled defensively throughout the campaign, failing to record a clean sheet in eight Ligue 1 matches.
Auxerre have also experienced serious defensive problems away from home, conceding 13 goals in four away fixtures.
The head-to-head record offers encouragement for Strasbourg. They have avoided defeat in their previous five competitive meetings with Auxerre, winning four and drawing one.
The Alsatian club also defeated Auxerre 3-0 at Stade de la Meinau in October 2025.
**LincBet's editorial prediction narrowly favors Strasbourg to end their losing sequence and secure an important home victory.**
Their favorable recent head-to-head record, home advantage and Auxerre's poor away defensive statistics support the selection.
However, Auxerre's improving league form makes the result difficult to predict confidently.
The projected final score is **Strasbourg 2-1 Auxerre**, with Both Teams to Score – Yes and Over 2.5 Goals selected as the principal additional predictions.

### ⚽ Historical Goal Trends
Four of the previous five meetings featured at least one team failing to score.

- October 29, 2025: Strasbourg 3-0 Auxerre.
- January 5, 2025: Strasbourg 3-1 Auxerre.

These results provide a meaningful psychological advantage.
### 🤝 Head-to-Head Verdict
Strasbourg possess the stronger recent record.
