Marseille vs Nantes Predictions

No team has more goals in Ligue 1 this season than Marseille, who have scored 36 times in 16 games. Back over 3.5 goals when Nantes visit Stade Velodrome on Sunday, January 4th, 2026.

Marseille are third in Ligue 1, 14 places and 21 points above Nantes, with ten wins from their 16 games this season. The visitors have won just two of their 16 matches.

Marseille have won their last three Ligue 1 clashes with Nantes and beat Monaco 1-0 last month in their last home league game. It’s a difficult time for Nantes, who have lost five of their last seven matches.

There have been four goals or more in six of Marseille’s 16 Ligue 1 matches this season.

Both teams have been struggling defensively of late. Marseille have failed to keep a clean sheet in three of their last four Ligue 1 games, while Nantes have gone without a shutout in 19 of their last 20 visits to Marseille.

A 3-1 home win for Marseille is an appealing correct-score bet. Nantes are on a losing run of two straight away games and have been beaten by two or more goals in two of their last three Ligue 1 matches.
