Lens vs Auxerre Prediction, Odds & Statistics
Our Poisson-based model projects 2.71 expected goals for Lens and 1.38 for Auxerre, a combined total of 4.09.

Goals markets follow the same shape: 77% for over 2.5 goals and 70% for both teams to score, with 2–1 the single most likely scoreline at 9%.

Prediction conclusion
The model's leading selection is Lens win, at 65.5%. Its single most likely scoreline is 2–1.
It puts both teams scoring at 70% and over 2.5 goals at 77%.
A 66% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
