Marseille host Bordeaux for their mid-table Ligue 1 clash on Tuesday evening as both sides largely struggle for consistency across competitions, looking for all-important points to build towards the top 4 chase amid underwhelming campaigns so far.
Les Phoceens have indeed been far from formidable and Europa League, Coupe de France, and Coupe de la Ligue exits still early in the competitions prove to the point. They’ve seen narrow losses to Lille (1-2) and Reims (2-1) extended the poor streak of eight losses in 12 outings since late November, where just a 0-1 win at Caen hardly feels like a confidence booster.
Bordeaux have seen their unpredictable run on the road continue too as Strasbourg bagged the Ligue 1 points (1-0) and got through to the Coupe de la Ligue Final (3-2) over the past seven days. They’ve been in better shape through December and early January, but now have a lot to put behind themselves.
Les Girondins have been more solid defensively but have a lot to prove at Orange Velodrome, struggling over the past few weeks especially on the road. This could prove an important contest for both sides’ ambitions to climb the table and we thus expect a thriller in the making.
Both sides will be very motivated but we see no one making huge advances towards the top of the table here, as we now stick our necks out for them to share the spoils in a Draw priced at 23/10 with Betfair.
We have seen both Marseille and Bordeaux scoring and conceding goals on the regular, which also has us going for a Yes on Both teams to score at 10/11 with FansBet. We’ve seen such occasions in four of Marseille’s last five outings and this looks like evidence for such a bet too.
