Girondins Bordeaux vs. Nantes Atlantique

With the Marseille/Saint Etienne match postponed due to COVID cases, this match becomes the lone Ligue 1 start to the season. Bordeaux has drawn five goals in their last seven Ligue 1 matches and comes into this one under new manager Jean-Louis Gasset. They were 12th in Ligue 1 when the season was called off. While they struggled for wins, they were hard to beat, undefeated in seven of their last eight Ligue matches. Nantes was one position behind at 13th and come into this one without midfielder Abdoulaye Toure and winger Marcus Coco, as well as defensive midfielder Mehdi Abeid and attaching midfielder Ludovic Blas. Bordeaux owns a 34-22 advantage in matches between these clubs. Back Girondins Bordeaux for the win.
