JefeBet Prediction
For this great RC Lens vs AJ Auxerre clash, we believe that the win will be for the home team. RC Lens have performed spectacularly for now this season and are unbeaten at home. As they have a very accurate attack and their possession has accompanied most matches, they are likely to repeat their win against AJ Auxerre in the relegation zone and with a negative run behind them.
Prediction: RC Lens win 3-0.
