Bordeaux vs Lyon

After nine days to recover from their goalless stalemate on the opening day with Nantes, Bordeaux advanced to their first three points of the season with a 2-0 win over Angers in the final weekend of August.

Two quick goals from Josh Maja and Toma Basic put Angers on the back burner early on, and Bordeaux coach Jean-Louis Gasset has yet to witness a goal from his side in the new season.

While early season standings are rarely expected to predict the final table, Bordeaux can be encouraged by their current second-place position as they try to improve from 12th place from last season.

However, Bordeaux's last four home games have ended in draws, and Gasset's team will face a Lyon team with a point to prove after their 2019-20 campaign.

Depending on results elsewhere, Bordeaux could take first place late in the game this weekend, with current Nice leading the table to face Montpellier on Saturday.
