PSG vs Bordeaux Predictions

• PSG have scored 31 goals in 13 home Ligue 1 games this season (avg 2.38).
• Bordeaux have conceded at least five goals in three of their last six Ligue 1 away games.
• Neymar has scored four goals in his last four appearances against Bordeaux.

Brittle Bordeaux look tailor-made for a trouncing

Two clubs that suffered massive blows to their morale last time out meet at the Parc des Princes on Sunday – where PSG should batter Bordeaux in a bid to overcome their midweek Champions League exit. Mauricio Pochettino’s side may have exposed all their familiar flaws at Europe’s top table once more, but their issues are nothing like those of their relegation-haunted opponents this weekend.

Les Girondins flopped in a 2-0 home defeat to Troyes last weekend that left them moored to the foot of Ligue 1. They have lost nine, drawn four and won two of their last 15 league games and have now conceded a startling 65 goals in 2021-22.

So while PSG might be licking their wounds and without a handful of big name players, such as suspended Marco Verratti and injured Spanish stars Sergio Ramos and Ander Herrera, we will gladly back their pride and professionalism to see them to a wide margin win over brittle Bordeaux.

Neymar has value in anytime goalscorer market  

David Guion’s side have conceded at least five goals in three of their last six away trips – none of them as difficult as Sunday’s mission in Paris. On two of those three occasions their opponents visibly eased off in the final 20 minutes, begging the question of how many Bordeaux could have been hit for if they had pushed until the final whistle.

Bordeaux look absolutely tailor-made for a PSG side in need of a lift and we fully expect them to score at least five times on Sunday. Kylian Mbappe remains in great form, but he’s very short in anytime goalscorer betting where there appears to be better value about Neymar. The Brazilian has scored four in his last four appearances against this opponent, including a brace at the Matmut Atlantique earlier this season.
