Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
Bordeaux
Match Time & Date:
16/09/2018
11:00 AM
Prediction: 2-0
Nimes
Bordeaux will be aiming to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to Rennes when they take on Nimes on Matchday 5. Les Girondins have been totally unpredictable at the start of the new Ligue 1 campaign, with the team, for example, beating Monaco, while losing to Toulouse. Bordeaux need to get back on course as soon as possible if they are to play an important role in the French top flight this season and they will not have a better chance than this. Les Girondins play host to Nimes and we predict that they are going to give fans something to cheer about on Sunday afternoon. The newcomers suffered back-to-back losses to the likes of Toulouse and PSG in previous two league fixtures and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Bordeaux’s party at Stade Matmut-Atlantique on day 5 of the new Ligue 1 campaign.

Highlighted Player (Andreas Cornelius):
The 23-year-old Danish international Andreas Cornelius plays as a striker for F.C. Copenhagen. Product of the youth set-up, Cornelius started his professional career at F.C. Copenhagen in 2012 when he joined the first-team of the Danish giants. His first goal for Copenhagen came in the very first game of the new season 2012-13 against Odense, when Cornelius scored an opening goal in a 2-2 draw.
Cornelius’ immediate impact and impression in the first-team quickly made him the fan favourite. The Danish striker became one of the most popular players of the club despite playing only one full season with the first team before he was transferred to Cardiff City in 2013. Cornelius was unfortunate to sustain a recurrent ankle injury which prevented him from making his stamp in the new team and which also reduced his playing time to only 8 Premier League performances.
Not only did Cornelius miss three months of club football, but he also failed at the chance to compete for his country in their final qualification games for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. Cornelius ended up returning to Copenhagen in January 2014, where he has so far played more than 65 matches and enjoyed 18 goals.
Highlighted Team (Nimes):
Founded on April 10, 1937 Nimes Olympique are a French club that will compete in the Ligue 1 in the 2018/2019 season. Les crocodiles were playing an important role in French football in the last 50s, with the team finishing second on four occasions (1958, 1959, 1960, 1972).
Nimes made it to the French Cup final in 1958, 1961 and 1996, but they eventually failed to lift the trophy. Nimes are well known for their red home colours, but they wear white shirts and white shorts when playing on the travels. Stade de Costieres has been the home of Nimes since 1989, when it was opened.
The venue can hold up to 18,482 spectators and the construction cost €160 million. Speaking of the club’s notable footballers, the likes of Wilson Oruma, Mehmed Bazdarevic, Aliou Cisse, Benjamin Moukandjo, Laurent Blanc, Frederic Piquionne and Eric Cantona were all part of les crocodiles in the past. Montpellier are considered their biggest rivals.
