Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-0
Clermont
Bordeaux will be aiming to kick off the new Ligue 1 campaign in great manner when they host Clermont at their Stade Matmut Atlantique on Sunday afternoon. Les Girondins are a real force to be reckoned with at home, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for Vladimir Petkovic’s troops. The experienced tactician is on a quest to bring glory days back to Matmut Atlantique, and we predict that his men are going to leave their hearts on the field.
The newcomers, on the other hand, were impressive in pre-season, with the team winning each of their previous four warm-up games. However, Clermont are not regarded as good travelers, which is the main reason why we are tempted to put our money on the home team. When the two teams met in the French Cup back in 2017 Bordeaux defeated Clermont thanks to Malcom’s late goal.
