Ligue 1: Bordeaux 0 Saint-Etienne 0

Bordeaux and Saint-Etienne both failed to score as they played out a dour 0-0 draw in Ligue 1 on Thursday.

In a largely uneventful affair at the Stade Jacques Chaban-Delmas neither side could create clear cut chances on a rain sodden evening in the south of France.

The result moves Saint-Etienne to fourth spot on the Ligue 1 table with Bordeaux a place back in fifth with both teams level on 27 points.

Bordeaux will travel to lowly Nancy on Sunday with Saint-Etienne looking ahead to a tough home tie against Lorient who are also on 27 points.
