Bookmaker Ratings prediction one – 1x and Total Goals over 1.5 – 1.74

Bookmaker Ratings prediction two – Both to score – 1.55

1X and Total Goals over 1.5

According to the bookies, the hosts are the favorites to win this match. However, playing against a team like Lyon could be a bit risky to bet for. Not to mention, the visitors are undefeated in 15 of their last 16 matches against Marseille in all competitions.

Both to score

Both teams have scored in four of the last five encounters between Marseille and Lyon, and the same market could be worth pursuing on Sunday.

The hosts have scored at least 2 goals in their previous 3 league games, while Lyon’s last 3 matches have seen more than 2.5 goals. Meanwhile, both sides scored at least one goal each in their last five matches.

Preliminary review and match prediction for Marseille vs Lyon

After PSG have crowned Ligue 1 champions, Marseille’s ambition now will be to keep their second position. For that, they can’t afford to lose points in the remaining matches.

Right now, Les Olympiens have a six-point lead over the 3rd-placed Rennes. So they just need two wins to secure their place in the next Champions League campaign.

So far this season, only 14 of the 34 games played by Marseille have had over 2.5 total goals. They are a team that, once they take the lead, know how to dominate by adopting a much more defensive style.

On the other hand, Lyon could be even closer to the Top 5 had they not lost important points in certain games.

Peter Bosz’s side are having a very unstable campaign, to say the least. The fact that Les Gones won 14, drew 11 and lost 9 shows how inconsistent they are.

Coming into this match, the Lyon picked up ten points from a possible 15 in their last five games.
