Ligue 1 2018-19, Bordeaux v Paris Saint-Germain: Match preview, team news, predictions, betting odds & venue details
It will be a mountainous task for Bordeaux on Sunday when they host the high-flying league leaders Paris Saint Germain in Matmut Atlantique, Bordeaux.
The domestic front has once again proven to be child's play for PSG, with the Les Parisiens already 15 points clear of the second-placed Lyon. What makes this more interesting is the fact that the reigning champions are yet to drop a single point in the Ligue 1, with 14 victories from 14 matches.
Added to that the midweek Champions League victory over Liverpool, and Neymar and Co will eager for more goals against the low-ranked hosts.
Bordeaux are 11th on the table with only four wins in their 14 matches so far. A point against the Parisians looks unlikely, even though the hosts are on a 5-match unbeaten run.
