Marseille vs Lyon Live Stream: How to Watch Ligue 1 Match

Joe Vaughan 31 Jan 2025

Lyon begin life under new head coach Paulo Fonseca when they travel to Ligue 1 title challengers Marseille on Sunday evening, a game that is available to stream live on bet365.

Les Gones made the surprise decision to sack Pierre Sage on Tuesday, following a five-game winless run in all competitions during which they were knocked out of the Coupe de France at the last-32 stage by fifth-tier Bourgoin-Jallieu.

The 45-year-old leaves with the club sitting sixth in Ligue 1, just four points behind Monaco in third, and it will be up to new boss Fonseca to get the club firing on all cylinders again and gather some early momentum in his tenure.

Fonseca, who was sacked by Serie A side AC Milan in December after a disappointing campaign, has had little time to get to know his squad and that lack of preparation time could show in this difficult trip to the Stade Velodrome.

Hosts Marseille are the nearest challengers to Paris Saint-Germain in the title race, currently 10 points behind Les Parisiens, but they head into this contest in poor form and will need to raise their standards.

Marseille vs Lyon Form Guide and Head-to-Head Stats

Les Phoceens are without a win in three matches in all competitions, having also been knocked out of the Coupe de France, by Lille, but they have been solid enough at home this season with PSG and Auxerre the only teams to have beaten them at the Stade Velodrome in the league.

Roberto De Zerbi’s side won the reverse fixture 3-2 back in September despite Leonardo Balerdi being dismissed just five minutes into the contest, and Marseille will be looking to complete the league double over Lyon for the second time in the last three seasons.

The visitors have lost on their last two trips to Marseille, going down 1-0 and 3-0, and they could be in for more away misery in Fonseca’s first game in charge.

Marseille vs Lyon Prediction

The Olympians are without a win in three, which is a difficult position to shake, especially when the challengers are 10 points away from PSG in the title race, however, Lyon’s current form also suggests it’s unlikely they have what’s necessary to take maximum points from this encounter.
