Auxerre – Monaco: a tricky tie in the Coupe de France 
The only 32nd-final match between two Ligue 1 clubs, Auxerre host Monaco on Sunday at the Abbé-Deschamps. A knockout tie between two sides still hunting consistency this season.
Auxerre: better in the league, shaky in the Cup 
Auxerre are having a rough season, but the last few weeks have shown a slight improvement. Still hovering near the drop zone, AJA have nicked some crucial points and will finish the year outside the automatic relegation places.
At home it’s better. Most of their points have come at the Abbé-Deschamps, often in tight games. But the Coupe de France hasn’t been kind to the Burgundians lately. Two straight exits at this stage, and three consecutive home defeats in the competition.
Against Monaco, Auxerre are also on a long drought. Their last win dates back to 2009 — since then the gap’s been too big.
Monaco: inconsistent but experienced 
Monaco have been a bit up-and-down for weeks. Capable of decent reactions, the Principality club still can’t string results together. No looming slump, no genuine momentum.
Away form is patchy, with several games without a win. But in the Cup, Monaco travel well. They often get through this round and know how to handle these one-off ties.
Another key point: head-to-heads. Monaco have seven straight wins over Auxerre across all competitions. That’s an obvious psychological edge.
Compositions probables
Auxerre : De Percin, Sy, Legros, Diomande, Oppegard, Diousse, Danois, Devernois, Sinayoko, Mara, L. Coulibaly
Monaco : Lienard, Henrique, Salisu, Kehrer, Ouattara, M. Coulibaly, Bamba, Brunner, Minamino, Idumbo, Ilenikhena
What to take away
- Auxerre pick up most of their points at home this season.
- AJA have suffered several early exits in the Coupe de France.
- Monaco struggle to build streaks, but they’re used to this sort of game.
- The Monégasques have won their last seven meetings with Auxerre.
Football Prediction Auxerre vs Monaco
Both teams to score
Auxerre often play with no fear at home and should create chances. Monaco, the more experienced side, have more than enough to answer. In a knockout tie, spaces could open up at both ends.

First, a word on our tips
- What we publish on Mathodds is analysis, nothing more. We share an opinion, a reading of the moment, but never a guarantee. Sport stays what it is: unpredictable. A red card, an injury, a goal out of nowhere… and the script changes completely.
- Let’s be clear: there’s no risk-free bet. Even when something looks “obvious”, it’s never really certain. Yes, that means you can lose. It’s inevitable at some point.
- Best advice: be sensible. Bet small, set a budget and stick to it. Don’t touch money you need to live on. And above all: don’t chase losses — it rarely ends well.
- A bet should stay a game, not a job or a source of income. If it’s taking over your life, annoying you or putting you under pressure, take a break. If needed, talk to a specialist organisation. That’s what they’re there for.
- Ultimately, responsibility lies with you. Reading our content means accepting that risk exists and won’t vanish, not even with the best analysis on earth.
- Essential reminder: betting is forbidden to minors and must respect your country’s laws. Gambling can spiral quickly (money losses, family tensions, addiction). Need Help? Call 1-800-GAMBLER. In the UK? Visit https://www.gambleaware.org/https://www.gambleaware.org/.

Information that changes
A prediction is always based on what we know when we write it. But in the meantime, a team sheet can change, a player gets injured, the weather turns… and the analysis can quickly be out of date. We can’t be held responsible for that.
Your role
Before betting, just check that gambling is legal where you live. If it isn’t, that’s your responsibility, not ours.
