On the 13th day of Ligue 1, Bordeaux is set to face Nantes on Sunday. Despite a challenging start to the championship, Bordeaux has shown improvement, securing ten points in the last four matches and handing OGC Nice their first defeat at the Allianz Riviera stadium.
For the upcoming Atlantic derby, Bordeaux’s coach, Francis Gilot, may have the presence of their key striker, Cheick Diabaté. Although absent in recent matches against Nice and Nicosia, the Malian international striker participated normally in training on Thursday, indicating he is likely available for the match against Nantes at Chaban-Delmas.
Diabaté, who is Bordeaux’s top scorer this season with six goals, is expected to play a crucial role as the team aims to overcome Nantes. Nantes currently holds a commendable 4th place in the league, with 20 points earned both away and at La Beaujoire.
