"The hosts begin the round inside the relegation zone and will be desperate for points to aid their survival push, while PSG know that avoiding defeat would be enough to temporarily return them to the summit. Auxerre's return to the top flight has proven difficult, with Christophe Pelissier's side struggling for consistency after finishing comfortably mid-table last season."
"PSG travel south knowing that dropped points have been costly in what has been a less dominant domestic campaign than usual. Luis Enrique's side currently sit second in the table, but they have responded positively to earlier setbacks by winning four of their last five Ligue 1 matches, scoring freely in the process. A 3-0 home win over Lille last weekend kept them within touching distance of first place, with Ousmane Dembele continuing his strong run of form in the final third."
Auxerre begin the round inside the relegation zone and face mounting pressure to secure points for their survival push. The club have struggled for consistency after a comfortable mid-table finish last season and have slipped to 17th following a poor run of results either side of the winter break. Auxerre have lost three consecutive league matches, including a narrow 1-0 defeat at Lens. PSG sit second in Ligue 1 but have recovered by winning four of their last five league games, scoring freely and recording a 3-0 win over Lille. Luis Enrique's side still show less convincing away form and suffered a midweek Champions League defeat to Sporting Lisbon.
