Bordeaux – Toulouse: 21st January 2017

FC Girondins de Bordeaux (10th place place in Ligue 1 standings)

The team coached by Jocelyn Gourvennec never managed to earn the championship five matches. Inevitably, Bordeaux was removed a lot of places that allow access to a European Cup.

Sigurele checked lately wins were recorded in the French Cup (Clermont vs. 1-0) and the French League Cup, a competition in which the Girondins managed to eliminate Nice (3-2) and Guingamp (3-2). At first glance you might think that Laborde & co. and they found inspiration in front of goal, but one must consider that both opposing Ligue 1 who went above mentioned games are more players have evolved without basic did not file a sustained effort.

Bordeaux’s staff these days trying to change something. Numerous episodes of a real offensive impotence made it on to think a little different formula Gourvennec home. According to L’Equipe newspaper, the team of “world capital of wine” will insist with three strikers from now, based on the classic 4-4-2 strategy proving the tour that brings little positive results.

Toulouse FC (9th place in Ligue 1 standings)

No band Pascal Dupraz not doing better. Accounting for one win, one draw and no less than five failures in the last seven stages, Toulouse seems increasingly far from the band on tour who managed to do training with PSG and AS Monaco on “Municipal”.

It is difficult to say what caused the fall in team scoring in southwestern France. Off season looked very promising, but rather the end brought remember that Toulouse has managed to save themselves from relegation last season in the last round.

It seems hard to believe that a team that has scored 5 times in games with the defending champions and monegascii can not find the way to the opposing goal once in disputes with bands like Nantes or Dijon. However, this is reality, Toulouse presenting themselves before the duel this weekend with no goal scored in the last two stages.

Probable Teams:

Bordeaux (4-3-3): Prior – Poundje, Pallois, Lewczuk, Sabaly – Vada, Toulalan, Plasil – Kamano, Laborde Malcolm.

Toulouse (4-2-3-1): Lafont – adoua, Diop, Jullien, Moubandje – Bodiger, Doumbia – Trejo, Toivonen, Sylla – Braithwaite.
