PSG hosts Bordeaux in the 11th round of the French Ligue 1 and one of the derbies of the weekend in France.
PSG will approach this match without Ibrahimovic and Cavani so that may make things difficult for them. Hosts have finally broken a run of draws last round to win 3-1 at Lens, also won 1-0 in Nicosia in UCL so are now looking good value to retake the 1st place in the league soon … currently Marseille is first, PSG only second with 4 wins and 6 draws. Besides Ibrahimovic and Cavani, PSG also must wait for the fitness of Thiago Silva, David Luiz and Marquinhos … but at least Silva and Luiz are expected to take part in the game.

Bordeaux surprisingly good so far … 3rd place … 5-3-2 statistics line, 16 goals scored (but also 10 received). But Bordeaux’s strong start of the season suffered a dent in the last two rounds … visitors got only 1 point vs. Reims and Caen and scored only 1 goal in those 2 games. Also Bordeaux suffered a little on the road … 2-1-2 statistics line. The biggest problem for Bordeaux is that they are decimated for this game: Jussie, Saivet, Pellenard, Illori, Sane and Traore are absent … also Maurice-Belay, Mariano and Rolan are questionable.
I think Bordeaux is starting to fade after the strong start, the last two games they played poorly, not in good form and they have big squad problems … odds are they won’t get points in Paris vs. a PSG team that is plaing increasingly better. But also PSG without Cavani and Ibrahimovic will need to find some other scoring options (Pastore, Moura and Bahenbeck set to start). I see PSG relying more on their defense and pushing over the 90 minutes to get the winning goal …. which I think they have the quality and form to get. Will not be an easy game but my tip is PSG to win to nil. Correct score prediction: PSG – Bordeaux 1-0.
