On the fifth day of the first group stage in the Champions League the Girondins de Bordeaux want to defend their position as leader in the group A when they are playing against Juventus Turin on Wednesday. If the team of coach Laurent Blanc reachs at least a draw it has very good chances to rank first till to the end.

The Italians around Diego are on the second place and the Old Dame has still to make points to become a member of the last sixteen. Because of this the team is focussing on a good result, so that they haven't too much pressure in the last match against Bayern Munich. The group of Ciro Ferrara is actually good in form after it won 1:0 against Udinese and stays on the second position in the Italian championship.

On the side of the Girondins de Bordeaux it is definitely, that Yoann Gourcuff won't participe in this match. Thereto the champion of the last season lost 0:1 at home against Valenciennes on Saturday. But Alou Diarra and his teammates want to augment their niveau in this interesting game. The captain accents: "We haven't the time to cogitate."
