The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Bordeaux are in the 12th position while the guesting Nîmes worry at 16th.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Nîmes form and stats
Things could have gone better for Nîmes in their Ligue 1 away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.
