French League Cup: PSG vs AuxerreSemifinal duel of French League Cup is at the same time a chance for all the team to reach the European places next season.
Another disappointing season
The hosts in this duel, PSG against disappointed their fans. They again announced the fight for the title and the Champions League, excellent play and great back-ups but after 26 rounds they are on only three points away from the second league. Even Le Guen can’t manage to make anything out of his team. Clearly they need changes. The coach made a list of the wanted players and if we know how much money is usually spent in Paris during transfer windows most players will definitely sign for the Saints this summer.
They will certainly take this Cup seriously since they want to play in Europe next season. The trophy in League Cup would be a consolation prize and it would improve the mood of the fans. They haven’t got injury problems but the question is if Le Guen will field the strongest team since they are guests to Bordeaux this weekend.
Auxerre in the series
Auxerre escaped the relegation zone in the last few rounds by marking three successive wins. They are seven points away and there shouldn’t be any problems about their status in the league. They marked two valuable away wins which was not their bright side this season. Some players will definitely rest, earned it, and now they will play a tough away game in Marseille.
They are quite good at home and their only aim is calm finish. After all of the problems in the club, this season is the season of stabilizing and no one expects much of this team so the players will play relaxed.
Betting Verdict
None of the semifinalists will calculate much. Some of the players will rest and everything will depend on the fielded line-ups. One thing is sure – this will be a tough match without many chances. Duels of these teams are usually like that. Each of them will wait for the other one to make a mistake. Our choice is under 2.5 goals.
