Bordeaux and Saint-Etienne continue their race against the drop when they go head-to-head at the Matmut Atlantique Stadium on Monday.
With just six games left to play in the 2021-22 Ligue 1 campaign, the visitors currently sit one point above the relegation zone, while the hosts are second-bottom with 26 points from 32 games.
Bordeaux suffered a huge blow in their relegation battle as they were battered 6-1 by Olympique Lyon on Sunday.
