Bordeaux vs Bastia Betting Tips & Predictions

Bordeaux are really struggling at the moment. They are in the midst of an injury crisis and a terrible spell of form, and they have a potential relegation battle on top of that too. They come into this game in 14th position in Ligue 1 having collected just 38 points this season, and there is only a five point gap between them and the relegation zone. If they don’t pick their form up soon they could well find themselves slipping even closer to the bottom three.

The hosts come into this game having won just one of their last eight in all competitions, with five of these ending in defeat for the strugglers. This includes a terrible performance in last week’s 4-0 defeat to relegation threatened Toulouse and a 4-1 defeat to Reims a couple of weeks ago,

Bastia sit one position and one point ahead of their opponents in the Ligue 1 table, and despite their defeat to Lille on Saturday they are still in a much better vein of form than Bordeaux.

They have won three and draw two of their last six league matches, and away from home they have picked up back to back victories. Bordeaux, on the other hand, haven’t won any of their last four matches on home turf.

Bastia are also unbeaten against Bordeaux in their last four meetings, so odds of 1/1 for a Bastia Win or Draw Double Chance look incredibly attractive. I’m backing that, alongside a 2-1 correct score prediction at huge odds of 16/1.
