On Friday, starting with 20:00, the Nimes – Marseille match will be played, within the round number 13 of Ligue 1.
The hosts of the “Stade des Costieres” will not be able to bet on the injured Aribi, Briancon, Despres, Meling, Sarr and Valerio, injured. In addition, the “white-reds” will not be able to use Deaux, suspended. In this situation, the team ranked 16th in Ligue 1 will have to use an improvised team in the duel against Marseille. Certainly, the premises cannot be “pink” at all in the current context, taking into account the huge difference in value.
On the other hand, with certainty, Marseille is going through the best period of this competitive season. Villas-Boas’ team comes both after 4 consecutive victories in Ligue 1, and after the first success recorded in this edition of the Champions League groups, 2-1 at home against Olympiakos. The moral ascendancy of the Portuguese students can only be auspicious for the “white-blues”, who occupy the 6th position in the championship with 21 points obtained – only 2 lengths away from the second ranked, Lille!
No draw in the last 9 official matches for Olymique Marseille;
Marseille has won the previous 4 direct matches;
Nimes, 22 goals scored in the first 12 rounds of Ligue 1.
PREDICTION: Marseille to win @ 1,95
