SC Bastia vs Bordeaux Predictions

• Bastia have lost four of their last eight matches
• Bordeaux are on a run of five wins from six league games
• Bordeaux have registered three victories in five away fixtures

Can Bastia pull off a shock?

Bastia have not had the worst of starts to the season, but four defeats from their last eight matches highlights their inconsistency.

François Ciccolini’s side suffered a 3-0 loss at Le Harve last time out, meaning they have conceded 16 times in their 11 outings.

And although they have only conceded four goals on home soil, their form at Stade Armand Cesari is two defeats from five, while they have picked up just three victories in the last 15 clashes between these two sides.

Bordeaux flying high

Bordeaux are a team on a mission, and five wins from their last six matches shows they are making a strong fist of getting back into Ligue 1.

David Guion’s side, who sat top after match day 11, have been particularly strong on the road, winning three of their last five, suffering just one defeat.

There are some defensive issues to address though, given they have now only kept one clean sheet in their last six, that coming against Metz in their most recent outing.

I predict that Bordeaux will win this game, with 2-1 to the visitors my correct score prediction.
