According to VoetbalPrimeur, the match against US Avranches, which ended in a 3-3 draw, may have been Bordeaux's final game. The club was scheduled to play in the French Cup against Saintes, but the match has been postponed and may be cancelled altogether. The reason for this is that the expected fans of Bordeaux may not be safely accommodated in Saintes.

The match is currently scheduled to take place on Sunday, 20 September, but this date is uncertain. All parties involved will meet on Friday, 11 September, for a meeting, with a decision to be made on Tuesday, 15 September. This means that Bordeaux may have already played its last match, with the 3-3 draw against US Avranches being its final game.
