AS Saint-Etienne welcomes AJ Auxerre in a very good display of the 28th day of Ligue 2. A meeting to follow live on our site from 3 p.m.

ASSE-Auxerre, pre-match

It will float like a scent of Ligue 1 this Saturday at Geoffroy-Guichard. And not just because AS Saint-Etienne hosts AJ Auxerre, another big name in French football.

These are two contenders for the rise who will clash between ASSE, fourth, and AJA, leader of the ranking. The Icaunais club can take advantage of this to take a further step towards direct accession to the elite while the Greens will try to consolidate their place as barrier, while perhaps waiting for better.

They are also two teams in great form, between Saint-Etienne which has just taken 10 points out of 12 possible (no one does better in Ligue 2) and which has the best defense in the championship, and Auxerre, the best attack in L2, which hasn’t lost in four months. On paper, it looks great!

ASSE-Auxerre, the probable lineups

Saint-Etienne: Larsonneur – Appiah, Briançon, Nadé, Maçon – Moueffek, Monconduit, Chambost – Cafaro, Sissoko, Cardona.

Auxerre: Léon – Joly, Jubal, Pellenard, Mensah – Owusu, Raveloson – Perrin, Hein, Sinayoko – Ayé.
