Marseille and Both Teams To Score

Reason for tip

Marseille have a fantastic home record, winning their last four home ties in the Europa League, scoring at least three goals in each. The French side are shaky at the back but they can win a high-scoring game.

Marseille 3-1

Reason for tip

Benfica have lost 2-1 in two of their last five away trips and they have scored exactly once in four of their last five away trips. Marseille have a fantastic scoring record at home, while they’ve netted at least three goals in their last four home games in this competition, two of which saw them win 3-1.

Pierre Emerick Aubameyang To Score Anytime

Reason for tip

Aubameyang has 10 Europa League goals to his name and the forward has scored in back-to-back matches heading into this contest. He’s netted in five of Marseille’s last seven games in this competition and those two blanks both came away from home.

Marseille vs Benfica Predictions

  • Marseille have won four of their last five home matches
  • The hosts have won four straight at the Velodrome in the Europa League
  • Benfica have scored exactly once in four of their last five trips
  • Aubameyang has scored in five of Marseille’s last seven in Europe

Marseille chase another home win

Marseille head into Thursday’s clash on the back of five consecutive defeats and 2-1 down from the first leg, but they have been exceptional at the Velodrome this term and that could be enough to turn this tie on its head.

Of those five Marseille defeats, only one came at home and that was to Ligue 1 leaders PSG. They’ve won four of their last five home matches and they’re on a four-game winning run at the Velodrome in the Europa League.

Marseille have seen both teams score in all but one of their home matches in this competition this term and they meet a Benfica side who have scored exactly once in four of their last five away trips.

That’s unlikely to be enough for the Portuguese side, especially with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in stellar form in Europe. He has 10 Europa League goals for Marseille and the striker has scored in five of his last seven matches in the competition, including the first leg. He’s netted in their last three home Europa League ties and he can fire Marseille towards a high-scoring win.
