Best Predictions and Top Odds for Bordeaux vs St. Etienne

Two famous clubs who were once in Ligue 1, are fighting it out in the first match of round 26, each one with their agenda for the final part of the season.

Both Teams to Score – Yes

When we look at the home team for this Bordeaux vs St. Etienne prediction, they had four out of the last five matches with both teams scoring at least a goal, and concerning Bordeaux, three of those games were away from their home turf. St. Etienne had two out of the last five matches with BTTS covered. As far as their h2h matches go, only three games out of the last ten didn’t cover both teams’ scoring, that includes the last one, or rather the first match they played this season which St. Etienne won 2-0.

Over 2.5 Goals

St. Etienne is the second-best over 2.5 goals team in the league this season with 14 ‘over’ matches compared to eleven the other way. Bordeaux had twelve of those games, however, four out of their last five went over the mark which is important for this Bordeaux vs St. Etienne matchup. It is worth noting that Bordeaux is negative when it comes to over 2.5 goals matches when they play at home, they had five from 12 games, and at the same time, St. Etienne had the most ‘over’ matches in the league when playing as a visiting team. They had nine of those games, and not many teams come close to that record.

Draw

When two teams who are playing well meet, it is hard to look at a simple win-or-lose outcome, especially when both teams are in different parts of the league table. Bordeaux is in the middle of a tough battle for promotion into Ligue 1, while the other hand, St. Etienne escaped the relegation zone with four straight wins, but three of those victories were earned while playing at home. Bordeaux had six draws this season, just as much as their opponent on Saturday. Looking at their h2h record, only one from the last five encounters ended with a draw, and that was last season when they played in Bordeaux, the game ended 2-2.

Preview, Team News, and Bordeaux vs St. Etienne Lineups

Bordeaux

With one of the youngest squads in the league, Bordeaux is trying to earn promotion into Ligue 1 after only one season since dropping down the order. Issouf Sissokho and Lucas Rocrou are the only players missing from the team coached by David Guion.

St. Etienne

Saint Etienne suffered through the same fate as their opponents, these are both big clubs in terms of French football, and it is certainly a bit different looking at them fighting it out in the Second Division. The visiting team was in danger of dropping down to the Third Tier league system which would be a complete disaster. But, with four wins in a row, they have created a cushion in front of teams at the bottom. Aimen Moueffek should miss the game with an injury.
