In the weeks leading up to our OddsDigger Dijon vs Bordeaux betting tips, the Mustards have picked up three home victories on the spin. They saw off Nantes first, beating them 1-0 in late October. They followed that up with back-to-back 3-1 wins over Troyes and Toulouse. Cape Verde striker Júlio Tavares featured heavily in those wins, netting three times over the three fixtures. The team lost 1-0 at Nice in the middle of their positive run, but three wins in four is still a fantastic set of results for manager Olivier Dall'Oglio.

Les Girondins are in the midst of their stickiest patch of the season so far and they have failed to win any of their last seven matches. Five of those contests ended in defeat and it looks as though their 6-2 hammering by PSG in the last week of September knocked the confidence of many of their players. Despite not winning any of the six games since that battering in Paris, Jocelyn Gourvennec’s defence has only conceded seven times.

Dijon vs Bordeaux Prediction and Betting Advice

As always, form and momentum are key to the progress of any football team and that pair of footballing fundamentals are major players in today’s Dijon vs Bordeaux bets. Les Girondins are having a miserable time of it since September. As we detailed earlier, zero wins from seven are the stuff of nightmares and most of their problems have been on the road in 2017/18.

Jocelyn Gourvennec’s team have played eight Ligue 1 matches away from home this season and have only won once. The men from the south-west have only lost once at home since August, but they are finding it impossible to replicate those performances on their travels.

The Mustards are enjoying the new found confidence they have gained from some terrific recent displays in front of their passionate fans. Although these teams have only ever met three times in their history at the Stade Gaston Gérard, the home team have never lost this fixture. We uncovered the best Ligue 1 soccer odds to match our opening prediction at Sportingbet. Their value and variety are unmatched.

In a largely exciting league, Olivier Dall'Oglio’s side are one of the standout teams when it comes to providing entertainment. Ahead of today’s Dijon vs Bordeaux predictions, the home side have racked up twenty goals in fourteen league matches. Only the division’s current top four teams have managed to score more.

At the other end of the pitch, they look slightly ropey, however, and they have only stopped their opponents from scoring once this season in all. Dijon have the joint fourth-worst defensive numbers in the Ligue 1 in 2017/18, having conceded twenty-three times to date this term.

Having conceded twenty times themselves, the visitors are no strangers to mistakes at the back. In attacking areas they have let themselves down lately, having netted just once in their last five attempts. They will back themselves to register against a weak defence this Friday nonetheless and in two of the last three meetings between these clubs, there has been over 2.5 goals scored.
