Kick-off time -20:00 GMT

Live in-play betting – 

Lorient have a last chance to try and survive relegation this season although a win for Caen and Dijon would make the result of this game irrelevant.

Lorient are currently stuck in the relegation zone in 18th position with 35 points from 37 league games – just a point behind 16th and 17th placed Dijon and Caen.

They will play to win this game hoping that one of the two teams ahead of them drop points.

They have had a bad recent run of form that has seen them go 3 games without a win, losing two of those matches.

They managed to win their last 2 home games on the bounce. This game offers them an opportunity to continue that good home form.

Bordeaux have had a good season and are currently 6th in the league table with 58 points, just one point behind 5th placed Marseille.

They have no hope of playing in Europe next season but they will be playing to at least pass Marseille in the league table.

They are undefeated in their last 6 league games although they have drawn all 3 of their last 3 games.

Their away form has been reasonably good and they will be looking for a result at the Stade Yves Allainmat-Le Moustoir.
