Bordeaux hosts Lille in round 19 of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Wednesday, December 22nd at Matmut Atlantique (Bordeaux)
Bordeaux has not been shining for a long time. For example, the club took very modest 12th place in the previous season. And the current president, Gerard Lopez, appeared only in the summer and pulled the team out of external management, which threatened very serious consequences. He was also able to lure Vladimir Petkovic, who did a great job with the Swiss national team. After the Euro, the head coach switched to club work. But he is failing in a new role so far. In all these months, the ambitious team has won only three times under his management. On the other hand, the last match against Troyes brought such a long-awaited result. A 1-2 away victory helped the Girondins to slightly break away from the relegation zone.

Lille was able to create one of the main sensations of European football in the previous season. The Great Danes outranked eminent PSG and became the champions of France. It was clear that they would not manage to stay at this level, and the Parisians would definitely return the 1st place. Moreover, Lille lost the head coach, Galtier, and a great goalkeeper, Maignan. Yes, the start of the current championship was completely hopeless, but the Great Danes managed to fix a lot by the end of the first round. They won their group in the Champions League and even left Sevilla without playoffs. There have been no defeats in six consecutive rounds of Ligue 1, including a draw with Monaco and a victory over Rennes. So far, Lille is in a lower part of the standings, but Montpellier, which is ranked 5th after 18 rounds, is at the distance of only one victory.
Bordeaux have alternately beaten each other in head-to-head matches. Recently, Lille has been doing better, and now it has a successful streak of four victories in a row. Before that, Bordeaux scored ten points in four games against the Great Danes. Lille has gained momentum in recent weeks, and Jonathan David is in simply amazing shape. He leads the top scorer’s race with 11 goals. Let's believe that the Canadian and his partners will be able to deal with the Girondins.
Prediction for the match: Lille to win
