In a gameweek in which Paris Saint-Germain and RC Lens do not feature, eyes will be diverted towards the battle at the bottom and a potentially fatal game. With just six games remaining, AJ Auxerre will host FC Nantes. The latter are second from bottom, five points behind the former, who occupy the relegation playoff spot. Christophe Pélissier’s side are a further four points back from OGC Nice and safety. A win for L’AJA will pile the pressure on and, simultaneously, also certainly consign Les Canaris to the drop.
Nantes have just one league win since 4th January, but Auxerre aren’t exactly in hot form either, having won only twice themselves in the league in 2026. However, home advantage could be telling. L’AJA are stronger at home and Nantes will come here with a sense of desperation. It could leave spaces to exploit for an Auxerre side that are best on the counter.
