Bordeaux vs Nimes – Free Betting Tips, Odds & Predictions

These are our Bordeaux vs Nimes predictions and tips:

BTTS

Our first Bordeaux vs Nimes prediction explores the possibility of both teams to get on the scoresheet. Considering that all of Bordeaux’s last 5 league games saw both sides scoring and 4 of Nimes’ last 5 away games did the same we think this outcome is likely again.

Bakwa to Score Anytime

With our next Bordeaux vs Nimes prediction we are a bit brave, but again we had analysed this betting tip and feel confident that it’s worth considering. We think that Bordeaux’s second goalscorer Bakwa (5 goals) could get on the scoresheet.

Bakwa scored in 2 of the last 7 rounds, in comparison Bordeaux’s top scorer Maja is without a goal in 8 games. Bakwa was also involved directly in 6 big chances created in just the last 2 games. Now he faces Nimes’ defence that conceded 28 goals in 14 away matches and surely Bakwa will fancy his chances.

Bordeaux to Win

Bordeaux hold only a 1-point advantage over their nearest pursuer in the race for promotion and the Girondines have no room for errors. At the same time, Nimes lost 3 of their last 4 league matches and they sit in the relegation zone for a reason. Nimes achieved only 1 away win all season, and lost 9 of their other 13 away games. At the same Bordeaux are solid hosts (W7 D4 L2) and that’s why our final Bordeaux vs Nimes prediction is for a home win.

Bordeaux vs Nimes Team News, Match Preview and Analysis

Bordeaux

Bordeaux did well to hold off Sochaux to a 1-1 away draw last weekend. The display deserved even more, but the most important thing was to maintain the slim 1-point advantage over Sochaux and that was achieved. Bordeaux are now unbeaten in the last 4 rounds and their confidence is high.

Nimes

Nimes stopped their 4-game winless run with a much-needed 2-0 home success vs Queville last weekend. The Crocodiles were a bit fortunate to win this match but what it means is that their survival chances remain realistic. Nimes play very poorly on the road all season though and this hasn’t changed lately.

Bordeaux vs Nimes Lineups

Bordeaux have no serious injury issues and all regulars are available. Badji could return to the starting line-up instead of Davitashvili for the Girondines. Nimes on the other hand are still missing their key centre-back Poulain. Several other backup players are also sidelined so Nimes are restricted in their rotation options. They are likely to keep the starting XI untouched anyway after the win last weekend.
