Troyes vs Marseille Prediction: the Visitors Suffer Lineup Toubles

Prediction for the Ligue 1 Troyes vs Marseille match, which will take place on January 11th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Troyes was unlucky with the lot in the last 64 of the French Cup final. The hosts met with Lille and failed the match with a score of 0:2. Before that, Troyes had tied with Nantes in Ligue 1 and defeated Strasbourg 3:2. Before the 18th round Troyes was 13th in the championship standings. Troyes has 18 points, five points ahead of Brest from the relegation zone. The home statistics of Troyes are 14th in the division. Also, this club has lost only one match in the home hay, with six ties, and the last five home matches of Troyes have just ended in a draw.

Due to victories over Toulouse 6:1 and Montpellier 2:1, Olympique made it to third place in the Ligue 1 standings. The gap from the leading PSG is eight points. The southerners can hardly compete with the team from the capital, but Marseille can compete for second place with Lens. As we know, the second place is a direct UCL ticket. But Marseille has serious roster problems. Disqualifications for Bailly and Tavares, injuries to Payet, Harit, Ruiz, and Gigot. In other words, all lines lack someone, which may well affect the game's result. Marseille's away statistics are fourth in the division, +5=2-1, 16:7 goal difference.

Marseille has lineup problems, especially the absence of Tavares, one of the club's top scorers. However, this fact shouldn't change the outcome. The thing is that Marseille has enough skilled players - in the attacking line as well, which means that there are enough people to score. With all due respect to this club but Marseille outclasses Troyes. The visitors will get their sixth away win in Ligue 1.

Tavares' absence will affect not the final result but the performance. While Troyes scores a little more than a goal per game at home. We expect at most three goals in the upcoming match.
