Bordeaux will host Nantes at Stade Matmut Atlantique, with three points on the line on matchday 10 of Ligue 1.

The home side come into the clash on the back of a 3-0 defeat away to Monaco before the international break. Aurelien Tchouameni, Aleksandr Golovin and Wissam Ben Yedder all got on the scoresheet for the Principality outfit.

Nantes secured maximum points in a routine 2-0 victory over Troyes on home turf. Andrei Girotto and Ludovic Blas scored second-half goals to guide their side to victory.

The win helped La Maison Jaune climb to ninth spot, with 13 points garnered from nine matches. Bordeaux are further below in 16th spot on seven points but a win could push them further clear of the relegation zone.

Bordeaux vs Nantes Prediction

The hosts have been out-of-sorts this term but still have enough quality to turn their season around.

Nantes are one of the form teams in the entire league and will be looking to keep their fine run going with another victory. However, Bordeaux are likely to be buoyed by home advantage and we are backing the spoils to be shared in a slow-scoring draw.

Prediction: Bordeaux 1-1 Nantes
