A 2-0 defeat in the reverse leg means Marseille comes to this game with a revenge mission. However, with Lille having picked a good run of form after a poor start this season, the visitors could be troublesome in this fixture. Our analysis for this game further sheds light on why we have settled on the best two predictions above.
Marseille to get their revenge @ 13/10 (2.30)
While this should be a tough duel given that both teams are in top form, we are strongly backing the hosts to win it. The hosts have shown great improvement both defensively and offensively. They come to this game back to back clean sheet victories, results we believe should inspire a win in this game against Lille that has failed to keep a clean sheet in four of their last five games.
The hosts to score first @ 18/25 (1.72)
Second prediction for Marseille vs Lille backs the hosts to score first. Marseille is third on the league table, a position they look to improve given that they are 36-point tie with second placed Nice. To get to the second spot, Marseille must not only score but also keep their defence tight. Scoring first in this game will even be more advantageous to the hosts.
