Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Monaco in 12th and Bordeaux in 9th place.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
It's time to recharge all electronic entertainment devices for Bordeaux, who are travelling more than 800 kilometers to play this game.
Monaco form and stats
Overall Ligue 1 stats at home this season for Monaco are 2-2-0 (wins-draw-losses).
No payout for Monaco in their previous match, an away game at Olympique Lyonnais that ended in defeat 1-4. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Montpellier.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Monaco have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 16 games) they have won six times, drawn three and lost seven.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (8 in 4 games), Monaco's attacking play is working. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 6 goals have been conceded.
Bordeaux form and stats
Bordeaux, who have the most clean sheets (6) in Ligue 1, are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Ligue 1, having played 3 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 2 losses). With two straight losses from their last two away games, Bordeaux are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
Jimmy Briand and Remi Oudin scored in Bordeaux's previous match, the home game against Nîmes that ended 2-0. Preceding that game, the 1-3 loss visiting Olympique Marseille's place.
We have checked recent matches where Bordeaux have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those nine games were two victories, one draw and six defeats.
