Bordeaux had to play three qualifying rounds to get through to the group stages and were unbeaten in six games. Their first group match ended in defeat when they lost 1-0 away to Slavia Prague so they will need to get something out of their first home game if they want to keep their dreams of reaching the knock-out stages alive. Bordeaux are ninth in Ligue 1 and have only lost two of their last nine league and cup games. Home form is strong with two defeats in their last ten and one of those was to champions PSG. Only one of their last nine Europa League home games have ended in defeat and they have won their last four with three home wins this season.

Copenhagen drew their opening group fixture 1-1 having to come from behind to get a point at home to Zenit St Petersburg.The Danish side are currently second in their domestic league only behind the league leaders on goal difference. Current form is less than impressive though and they lost 2-1 at the weekend away to Vendsyssel who are one from bottom in the league, their second away defeat in their last three league matches. In the Europa League they are undefeated in their last nine games since a loss to eventual winners Atletico Madrid last season. On their travels they have won three of their last four in the Europa League. The tip here is to go for under 2.5 goals to be scored in this match.
