Auxerre's defensive statistics in Ligue 1 for the 2026-2027 season are a major concern. The Burgundy club is conceding an average of 2.81 goals per game, one of the worst rates in the league.
These numbers shed light on the team's difficult situation, currently sitting 15th in the standings with just three points from four matches. Their recent form shows two wins and three losses from their last five outings. The next challenge is a big one, hosting seventh-placed Stade Brestois 29 on Saturday, September 19.
A look at the season's data reveals other weaknesses. Auxerre are facing an average of 15.06 shots from opponents per game. Discipline is also an issue, with nearly two yellow cards per match on average. Pathé Mboup is the most penalised player with 17 fouls committed. In goal, Mamadou Diop has made 16 saves while his teammate Egil Selvik has made 12.
The attack is struggling to compensate, averaging only 1.35 goals scored. The current top scorer is Cameron Archer with two goals. The upcoming fixtures will be key for turning things around. For now, the Auxerre squad must quickly find collective solutions to solidify their defensive lines.
