Marseille vs Lens – It’s a highly anticipated Ligue 1 match between Olympique Marseille and Lens at Stade Velodrome. OM will probably battle to the death against Lens in an effort to avenge back-to-back losses to Ajaccio and PSG. In the Ligue 1 derby, Eric Bailly hobbled off with an injury, and Samuel Gigot, another defender, is suspended and unable to play. Dimitri Payet, an experienced midfielder, is anticipated to start again.
Conversely, Les Sang et Or hope to build on their tenacious 1-0 victory over Montpellier. Although overcoming OM on the road is more difficult stated than done, Lens are determined to overcome Lorient in second place.
Marseille vs Lens – Betting Analysis
Lens overcame Marseille 3-2 in their previous meeting at Stade Velodrome, but this time, a share of the spoils is expected. For the visiting team, Jonathan Gradit is still out due to a broken collarbone.
Marseille has been playing consistently for the previous two months while also battling PSG for first place in Ligue 1 throughout their Champions League campaign. They performed a great job of returning to the Champions League playoff picture, but their home form faltered as they dropped two straight games.
PSG’s performance wasn’t great, but their emotions were particularly low after losing to Ajaccio a week before. Marseille has played outstanding defense all season, maintaining composure whenever possible, while its strikers are doing a wonderful job scoring goals and generating opportunities. As Marseille’s top scorers, Alexis Sanchez and Luis Suarez are crucial to the team’s efforts to hold onto their league-leading position.
