Marseille to Win
Marseille’s preparations for the new campaign were knocked by the exit of popular boss Jorge Sampaoli after the Argentinean felt he wasn’t backed in the transfer market, though OM – now under the instruction if Igor Tudor – should be able to overcome managerial uncertainty to beat Reims on Sunday. Marseille have claimed seven points from their last three meetings with Les rouges et blancs and with home advantage key, they should be able to push for victory again.
Under 2.5 Goals
Reims finished in a modest 12th position last season, though they did end the campaign with one of the division’s best defensive records. Indeed, only six sides conceded fewer goals than Reims’ men defence and Marseille could only score twice over two encounters with them. Both of those tussles produced under 2.5 goals overall and a stake on the same market is available at an appealing price on Sunday.
