Marseille vs Lyon Odds

Marseille Team News

Marseille cannot be remotely satisfied with the start of the new Ligue 1 season, as they currently find themselves in a disappointing ninth place after fourteen rounds, with only 17 points. Considering the club’s ambitions at the beginning of the season were to contend for the title, it is clear that this result must be much better.

Furthermore, the home team’s form is at a low level, having recorded only one victory in the last five matches in the previous round against Rennes with a score of 2:0, along with two draws and two losses. In contrast to their domestic league performance, Marseille has shown much better results in the Europa League group stage this season. They can secure the top spot in the table in the match against Brighton, which guarantees direct qualification to the Round of 16 of the second most elite European competition.

Lyon Team News

Even the most pessimistic Lyon fans could not have expected such a poor start for their team. The former French champions are currently at the bottom of the table with only seven points, six points behind Strasbourg, the first team above the relegation zone. The visitors have a game in hand, precisely this match against Marseille, but even a potential three points in this duel do not drastically change Lyon’s overall picture this season.

Lyon secured their first and only victory in the new season in the 12th round, with a 0:1 win against Rennes away. However, it’s worth noting that the home team played with one player less from the fifth minute due to Duo’s red card, making it easier for Lyon to secure their first three points. Lyon was subsequently defeated by Lille 0:2 and, in the last round, lost 3:2 to Lens, and no doubt facing Marseille presents a significant challenge for them to return without a defeat.
