Bordeaux have finally found their footing and have now won back to back matches for the first time in the season. They will look to make it three in a row when they will play host to a very capable Angers side on Sunday. Angers had a couple of really tough matches in their schedule but they have been really good overall.

Bordeaux (8-7-5) had a rather easy job on the road against Nice, easily beating them by 3-0. They have now won two in a row and have lost just once in their last five (3-1-1). Bordeaux are sitting at the 9th spot of the league table with 29 points, scoring 23 and conceding 21 goals in the process. They have a 4-3-3 record at home, scoring 10 and conceding 8 goals, and they have the 2nd fewest goal scored in their home matches with just 1.8 per match.

Angers (9-8-3) are  coming off back to back losses for the first time in this season, but they were against PSG and Monaco. However, they had lost just one of their seven matches prior to those two (4-1-2). Angers are doing a solid job so far and are sitting at the 8th spot with 30 points, just six points behind the top-five. They have been very competitive on the road so far (5-3-2), scoring 16 and conceding 18 goals so far.

Angers won by 1-3 at home in the only match these two played against each other last season, but lost by 2-0 in GameDay 2 of this season. Even so, Angers have been excellent in this venue over the years, going undefeated in their last four (3-1-1). Taking Angers to cover the spread here.
