Bordeaux, Recent FormWith Auxerre sitting a clear 14 places above them in the table, Bordeaux won't feel totally dejected with their 3-1 away defeat by them last time out. In that game they had 54% possession and managed 12 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Auxerre who had 18 attempts and 10 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Albert Riera will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 8 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. Of their last 6 games played at home, they've have been unable to score in 3 games and only kept 1 clean sheet.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 home games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
On an individual basis, Alberth Elis will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Bordeaux's last 6 league games.
Valenciennes, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Valenciennes players having failed to take any points away from their recent 1-0 home defeat at the hands of Amiens. In that game they recorded 65 % of the possession, with 11 attempts on goal, 2 on target. Their opponents found the target on 4 of their 13 shots on goal.
Having scored just 2 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Ahmed Kantari where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. However, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 7 in the same period. They have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games, and they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games away from home.
Valenciennes will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 4 league games in a row no wins in 16 games.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Bordeaux that came out on top with a 1-2 win.
In their past 5 meetings, Les Girondins' defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so VAFC will have to take their chances when they come.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams, Bordeaux has taken all 3 points and has not lost to VAFC in 11 games.
With no real injury worries, Bordeaux manager Albert Riera will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
VAFC manager Ahmed Kantari has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
