Auxerre

The "Burgundians" once claimed the French championship but currently find themselves competing in Ligue 2. In the league, the team holds the second position, trailing the leader by a mere two points with a game in hand. Given the current standings, Auxerre stands a good chance of returning to the elite of French football. In the last round, the team secured a 3-1 victory away against direct competitor Laval, marking their fourth consecutive league win. However, Auxerre was eliminated from the French Cup last week, succumbing to Nice in a penalty shootout despite putting up a strong performance.

Bordeaux

The "Girondins" have clinched the national championship six times, made a mark in Europe, but their current status in the second division is less impressive. Currently placed 15th in the league table, Bordeaux holds a slim 3-point cushion from the relegation zone with a game in hand. In their last match, Bordeaux secured a win away against Dunkirk, breaking a three-game winless streak.

Interesting facts about the match and head-to-head history

• The first-round encounter concluded with Bordeaux suffering a 4-2 defeat at home.
• Auxerre is the most prolific team in the championship, having scored 40 goals in 19 rounds.
