Bordeaux vs St Etienne Prediction & Betting tips
In the ranking, the difference between Girondins de Bordeaux and AS Saint-Étienne is four points in favor of the former, but does that make the home team the favorite for this match?
Girondins de Bordeaux:
With fifteen points after nine rounds, Girondins de Bordeaux is in more than a neat fourth place, but the team of Paulo Sousa has not been able to convince much at home. In the Stade Matmut-Atlantique only Metz, the current leader of the Ligue, won, while the points were shared against Montpellier and Stade Brestois and Paris Saint-Germain was lost. Especially in the offensive area it can be even better in-house, because on average the team comes to only four shots per goal at home, a statistic that you would rather expect with a team from the lower regions.
Despite the poor results in home games, midfielder Otavio dares to talk about participating in the Champions League: “It’s possible and it’s something we should keep in mind. We don’t have to play to finish fifth or sixth. We have to play to reach the Champions League and compete for the title. We need to improve little things step by step, we know that, but we work on that every day and it is important to go for the highest possible. ”
AS Saint-Etienne:
Ghislain Pristant failed to convince with AS Saint-Étienne this season, but his successor Claude Puel immediately managed to gain support from the fans in his first game. In the final round of the international break, Puel and his new team immediately hit archrival Olympique Lyonnais and a goal by substitute Robert Beric in the ninetieth minute beat the archrival with 1-0. With eleven points after nine games, the start of ASSE’s season is anything but convincing, but there seems to be more than enough perspective.
Despite the important win, Puel remains modest for the time being: “I don’t think it should be about me. The players were excellent, very disciplined. We made a few choices and the players responded well. In general, I am satisfied, but because of this victory, we should not think that there are still many problems to be solved and that there is still a lot of work to be done to bring us back to a higher level in sport. ”
