For the 5th day of the Europa League, Girondins de Bordeaux faces a crucial match against Eintracht Frankfurt, the group leader. Bordeaux, currently almost at the bottom of the group, has three defeats and only one victory in the competition, making a win imperative for them to have a chance to qualify for the round of 16. Eintracht Frankfurt, on the other hand, is looking to consolidate its qualification and potentially secure first place in the group.
Henri Saivet, a midfielder for Bordeaux, believes that the team has “a card to play.” With nothing more to lose in the group, Bordeaux aims to deliver a big match against Frankfurt and regain confidence. Saivet acknowledges the challenge posed by German teams, known for their rigor, but emphasizes the importance of approaching the match with determination. He sees the match as an opportunity for Bordeaux to progress and states that they will do everything to win and potentially qualify for the next stage of the competition.
