Marseille vs Nice: the Eaglets to earn at least 1 point at the Stade Velodrome

Marseille will take on Nice in round 29 of the French Ligue 1. Who will turn out stronger? Let’s see how the opponents are doing & what the best bet is. There are several options to consider!

Marseille form

After losing to Monaco (0-1), Marseille played 3 matches. Two of them took place in the Conference League round of 16, with the team beating Basel 2-1 to reach the tournament quarterfinals. The other win was in Ligue 1, where the Olympians defeated Brest 4-1. Marseille is second in the table with 50 points. It is impossible to catch up with the leading side PSG, but the opponents behind them are very close.

Nice form

Nice does not participate in European cups, but probably will in the next season. Before this round, the Eaglets are third in the standings, with 50 points. As for the team's recent games, everything is great here - no losses in the last five. After a tough victory over PSG themselves (1-0), Nice could not beat Montpellier (0-0).

Expert Betting Tips

For some reason, bookmakers see Marseille as the favorite, but they don't believe much in Nice. The Eaglets have not lost in five games in a row, plus the hosts played an away game in Basel on Thursday in the Conference League round of 16, where they certainly spent a lot of energy. We should also note that Nice has already faced Marseille twice this season, a 1-1 draw in Ligue 1 and a 4-1 defeat in the French Cup. We think the visitors will be closer to winning now as well – they will manage at least not to lose.

Prediction: Nice will not lose.
