THE PREDICTION
With Friday’s planned Marseille vs Saint-Etienne match being postponed due to three positive COVID-19 cases in the Marseille camp, this meeting between Bordeaux and Nantes heralds the return of French league football after over five months of inactivity. These two sides were evenly matched last season with both finishing on 37 points after the same number of games in what was a curtailed season, and that points towards an even contest here. However, Nantes’ preparations for this opener have been hampered by several players testing positive for coronavirus in the weeks leading up so that will have surely affected them. Therefore, Draw no Bet on Bordeaux is the betting tip.
