On Wednesday night, Marseille and Lyon go head-to-head at the Stade Velodrome in Ligue One.
Marseille
OM have endured an inconsistent campaign so far this season, as they currently sit in ninth place in the Ligue One table, five points adrift of the European spots in the French top-flight.
However, there have been signs that things are improving lately, as a weekend 2-0 home win against Rennes was their second straight win, meaning that the home team has lost just once in their previous seven competitive games.
The weekend win ended a four-game winless run for Marseille in the French top-flight.
It also followed a familiar low-scoring pattern, as their last five league matches have now produced under 2.5 goals.
One big plus for Marseille of late is their home form, as OM are unbeaten in six Ligue One games on home soil, having also kept five straight clean sheets.
Lyon
Lyon’s nightmare Ligue One campaign continued last time out with a 3-2 defeat at Lens.
The loss means that OL have now won just one of their last 14 Ligue One games dating back to last season.
Their early season form has Lyon rock bottom of the French top-flight table on just seven points, seven adrift of the safety of 15th place in Ligue One.
One of Lyon’s biggest concerns this season has been conceding too many goals in Ligue One, as they have conceded at least two goals in five of their previous seven league outings.
Lyon’s away form has not helped the visitors escape from their position at the bottom of the table, as OL have failed to win in eight away games in Ligue One, having suffered six defeats.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts that Marseille will add to the visitor’s recent woes in Ligue One by recording a victory in a low-scoring encounter.
