At the end of last season Villarreal managed to stay in fifth place, which brought the team a ticket to the Europa League. In the second most powerful football tournament in Europe, the yellow submarine started very convincingly. They have the maximum result after three rounds, which brought nine points and first position. Unai Emery’s charges beat Sivasspor (5: ), Qarabag (3:1) and Maccabi Tel Aviv (4:0), although it should be noted that the level of rivals in the group is far from La Liga. In the Primera tournament the yellow players played nine matches, in which they beat opponents five times and shared the tournament points with them three times. On October 25, the Valencian club had a peace with Cadiz (0:0), after which they defeated Valladolid (2:0) and Getafe (3:1). The main goalscorer of the team is Paco, who is currently leading the championship scorers’ race. Moreno, Voith and Costa will not be able to take part in today’s game.
Bordeaux, like Rennes, did not impress in the last 4 meetings. Zhirondinsky were capable of only 1 victory with 3 defeats. It is noteworthy that the team conceded 9 goals in 3 lost matches. In the rest of the 7 matches the ball flew into the goal of their keeper only 2 times. The most popular bet in matches with Jean-Louis Gasset is “both will score – no”. It was recorded in 8 fights out of 10. Bordeaux is strictly defensive. For 10 rounds they have only 9 effective strikes. On average, a team scores 0.9 goals per match. In 4 matches on the road Girondins won only 1 time with 3 defeats. In these 4 matches 4 goals were scored and 9 conceded. At the moment, the team is on the 12th line in the standings. The balance has 12 points. The gap from the relegation zone totals only 4 points. Pablo Nascimento (disqualification) will not appear on the field.
