Eliminated from the Europa League, Bordeaux faced AC Ajaccio last Sunday, securing a convincing victory. However, on the occasion of the 16th day, Francis Gillot’s team will be without midfielder Abdou Traoré in their trip to Guingamp this Wednesday. Traoré, who was already absent in the previous match against Ajaccio, sustained a hip injury and, more significantly, a thigh strain, keeping him out of action for about a month. This injury occurred during the Europa League match against Frankfurt. Another recovery midfielder, André Biyogo-Poko from Gabon, is also in the infirmary. The availability of Malian striker Cheikh Diabaté, who missed training due to illness, is yet to be decided for the Guingamp match.
