Sochaux hoping to continue turnaround against Auxerre

Soccer Betting Lines

11/09/2007 - Sochaux, France (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sochaux got off to a terrible start this season that saw the club go winless in its first eight games and fall into the relegation zone just one year after securing a spot in the UEFA Cup.

The team is still stuck in the bottom three in the standings, but has taken eight points from its last five games and is just six points out of a spot in the top half of the table.

On Saturday, Sochaux will try to continue to turn its fortunes around when the club hosts another bottom-half team, Auxerre.

The visitors also started poorly this campaign and have already lost eight of their first 13 games. However, like Sochaux, Auxerre has seen an improvement in its recent form, winning three of its last six games to move one point clear of Sochaux.

Hantz believes that Sochaux has yet to show its true colors this season, and that this contest will be an important one in attempting to erase such a bad month of August.

The Sochaux boss will be without Bojan Jokic (thigh), but he is expected to have the services of goalkeeper Teddy Richert (ankle) and midfielder Stephane Dalmat (thigh) after both have overcome injury issues.

Auxerre manager Jean Fernandez will bring a relatively healthy squad into Saturday's contest, with Benoit Pedretti, Daniel Niculae and Kevin Lejeune each battling minor knocks but expected to play.

In other Ligue 1 action on Saturday, fifth-place Le Mans hosts top-half club St Etienne, Lille has lost two of its last three games and entertains Nice, last-place Metz takes on disappointing 17th-place club Lens, while Strasbourg travels to Monaco. Nancy sits four points behind league-leaders Lyon and visits PSG, and Caen carries a five-game unbeaten streak into its contest with Valenciennes.

On Sunday, Rennes and Bordeaux, two teams in the top four, battle at Parc Lescure, Toulouse invades Lorient and Lyon hosts a Marseille side that is second from the bottom in the league table.
