Team News

Bordeaux
  • Three players are long term injury concerns for Bordeaux, as Carlos Henrique, Jussie and Andre Poko are all expected to remain on the sidelines for the foreseeable future.
  • Abdou Traore is doubtful with a thigh problem, Landry N’Guemo is still struggling with a knee complaint and Jaroslav Plasil could miss out due to an injury to his Achilles tendon.
Rennes
  • Jires Kembo-Ekoko is suspended after being sent off in the defeat to Lyon

Prediction

  • Bordeaux and Rennes endured very different starts to their respective seasons, Les Girondins edged a 3-2 thriller with Evian thanks to goals from Henri Saviet, Yoan Gouffran and Ludovic Obraniak. Rennes on the other hand slipped to a 1-0 defeat at home to Lyon.
  • Francis Gillot's men still have a multitude of injury problems heading into the contest, however they will surely be full of confidence after both their strikers found the net in the opening game of the season.
  • Gouffran hit 14 goals in Ligue 1 last season, while Saviet has long been seen as one of the hottest prospects in the division, and despite possessing a strong group of players it is difficult to see Rennes stopping a strike force that already appears to be extremely potent just one game into the new season.
