PSG vs Auxerre Prediction and Betting Tips | May 17th 2025
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will welcome Auxerre to Parc des Princes in their final Ligue 1 match of the season on Saturday. The capital club will likely play with a second-fiddle squad here as they have two crucial games later this month. The visitors are 10th in the league table and are set for another mid-table finish.
Les Parisiens returned to winning ways in Ligue 1 after three games last week, recording a 4-1 away win over Montpellier. Senny Mayulu scored in the 44th minute and Gonçalo Ramos bagged a second-half hat-trick.
AJA have seen a drop in form recently, winning just one of their last five league games. After losing 2-1 at home to Le Havre earlier this month, they were held to a 1-1 draw by Nantes last week. Gaëtan Perrin gave them the lead in the 45th minute, and Louis Leroux pulled Nantes level after the break.

Apart from Presnel Kimpembe, Luis Enrique has a full-strength squad for this match. Nonetheless, key players like Ousmane Dembélé, Gianluigi Donnarumma, and Marquinhos are expected to start from the bench.
Auxerre have lost three of their last five league games and have scored one goal apiece in four games during that period. Three of their last four wins in Ligue 1 have been registered on their travels.
