It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Strasbourg and Bordeaux.

These teams have little in common geographically as Bordeaux have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Bordeaux form and stats

Bordeaux have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Ligue 1, after 2-1-4 (7 played).

Bordeaux might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Saint-Étienne proved too strong as Bordeaux slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Stade Matmut-Atlantique. Prior to that match, the Bordeaux manager J. Gasset faced defeat when travelling to Lille and losing 1-2.

Bordeaux goalkeeper Benoît Costil had a great day against Saint-Étienne, but despite making six saves the loss could not be avoided.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Reims in just three days.

Bordeaux are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 8 away goals from 7 games (in the league). Bordeaux's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 13 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Strasbourg five wins, two draws and Bordeaux three victories. As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six games had two or less.
