Auxerre predicted XI v Lens: Hamed Traoré a doubt
Hamed Junior Troaré has been the standout player in this AJ Auxerre side, who are the surprise package in Ligue 1 this season. The Bournemouth loanee is L’AJA’s top scorer with six goals, however, he may be absent to face RC Lens on Saturday.
The playmaker is currently suffering with illness and whilst he is included in the matchday squad, it currently looks unlikely that he will start against Les Sang et Or. Troaré didn’t train the day before the match as he looks to recover and play a role in the encounter.
In his absence, Lassine Sinayoko looks likely to play on the left with Ado Onaiwu starting up front for Auxerre as they look to continue their stellar home form. Only AS Monaco have won at the Stade de l’Abbé-Deshcamps this season.
