Bordeaux is gearing up for a match against Maccabi Tel Aviv in the 6th day of the Europa League, although the outcome holds no significance for the French team. With only three points from five matches, Bordeaux is already eliminated from the final phase of the Europa League. Coach Francis Gillot has consistently treated this competition as secondary, often fielding alternate teams. In the upcoming match, Gillot plans to give opportunities to young players, including Sessi D’Almeida and Thomas Touré, who have excelled in the CFA and are experiencing European competition for the first time. Despite the lack of stakes, Bordeaux aims to maintain its standing on the European scene and avoid another defeat, which would be the fifth in six matches. The young players are eager to contribute to a positive end to their Europa League campaign.
