Marseille After a heavy defeat to PSG (0:3), Marseille struggled but managed to overcome Nantes in their following Ligue 1 encounter with a score of 2:1. This victory allowed the club to climb to the second place in the French championship standings, surpassing Monaco. Marseille also holds the second spot in the list of the most prolific teams of the current Ligue 1 season, having scored 23 times, with only PSG netting more (29). It's noteworthy that Marseille's home performance in the current championship has been noticeably weaker, earning just 5 points compared to 15 away. - The team scored at least 2 goals in 8 out of the last 11 Ligue 1 matches. - Marseille conceded in 7 out of their last 8 home games in this tournament. - At home, the club has not lost in 19 out of the previous 21 French championship encounters (11 wins, 8 draws). Auxerre Auxerre claimed their biggest victory since returning to the top French division by thrashing Rennes with a score of 4:0 in their last round. This result extended their unbeaten run to 3 games in Ligue 1 (2 wins, 1 draw), as well as their scoring streak to 6 matches in the tournament, scoring at least twice in 5 of those games. This successful spell allowed Auxerre to rise to the 10th place in the French championship standings and increase their lead over the playoff zone to 3 points. - The team won with a handicap (+1.5) in 5 out of the last 6 Ligue 1 encounters. - At least 3 goals have been scored in the last 8 matches involving Auxerre in the French championship. - Auxerre's winless away streak in the top French league stands at 8 matches (2 draws, 6 losses). Marseille vs. Auxerre: match prediction Marseille once again managed to secure 3 points on the road, albeit with difficulty, by edging out Nantes. Marseille is the best visiting team in the current championship, but their home performance is not as successful. Their last home match in the French championship ended in a heavy loss to PSG. Moreover, Marseille regularly concedes at home, failing to keep a clean sheet in 7 out of their last 8 Ligue 1 encounters. On the other hand, Auxerre has significantly improved after a poor start and has not lost in 4 out of their last 5 championship matches. Moreover, the club is strong in attack, scoring at least twice in 5 of their last 6 Ligue 1 games. The team has also managed to score in each of their last 6 matches in the tournament. Marseille, for its part, is not known for reliable defensive actions in home Ligue 1 matches, having conceded in 7 out of the last 8 occasions. I believe that the improved visitors are being underestimated; Auxerre is capable of breaching the hosts' net. My prediction is "Auxerre to score over 0.5 goals" at odds of 1.57. Author: Roman Sedov
