Bordeaux Preview – Can Bordeaux maintain unbeaten start?
Overall, it was a disappointing campaign in last season’s Ligue 1 for Friday night’s hosts, Bordeaux, as they were sitting just below mid-table in 12th place when the domestic top flight season was brought to a halt due to the lockdown.
Things could have been a lot worse though for Bordeaux as they lost just one of their final eight matches of that season and even that was a closely fought battle as they lost 4-3 away at PSG, but wins against Nantes and Metz (both away from home) along with five draws steadied the ship.
Bordeaux had earlier suffered four defeats on the trot with losses to Marseille, Strasbourg, Rennes and Friday’s opponents, Lyon – the latter being a 2-1 loss at home, so the hosts will be keen to avenge that defeat in this upcoming clash as they seek to extend their unbeaten run to three matches this season.
Lyon Preview – Can Lyon build on promising start?
Despite losing to the eventual winners of the Champions League, Bayern Munich, Lyon enjoyed a successful run in the elite European club competition as they reached the semi-finals of the competition and they also started this season’s Ligue 1 campaign with a resounding win to get the visitors off the mark.
A triumphant 4-1 home win over Dijon in their season-opener blew away their recent disappointment against the German champions and they’ll no doubt be keen to make it two wins on the trot when they travel to Bordeaux for this Friday night tussle at the Stade Matmut-Atlantique.
However, Lyon will need to improve upon results away from home if they’re to claim a European spot this season following three defeats from their final four matches on the road last term, but they’re unbeaten in their last four meetings against Bordeaux so they’ll be reasonably confident of getting something out of this encounter.
