The 2022-23 Ligue 1 season continues this week, as Auxerre welcome Lorient to face them at Stade de l'Abbé-Deschamps. The visitors have enjoyed a remarkably strong start to the current campaign, notching up five wins and a draw from seven games so far.
Now, they will look to end the first part of the term on a high note, with the international break looming - but their hosts could well do with securing a three-point haul themselves to bolster their own chances of survival, even at this early juncture.
