Marseille vs Troyes Predictions

Tip Reasoning

• Marseille have kept a clean sheet in just 13% of their home games this season
• Both teams have scored in 73% of Marseille’s home games this season
• Marseille have conceded at least once in each of their last seven home fixtures
• Troyes have only won four games all season

Marseille chasing Champions League

Marseille will be looking to secure Champions League football this season, but currently sit in third place – only enough to qualify for the Europa League. However, they are just two points behind second-placed Lens, and will be looking for a strong end to the season.

OM’s home record has been surprisingly poor this season, particularly in defence, having kept a clean sheet in just 13% of their home fixtures this season, while both teams have scored in 73% of their games at Orange Velodrome. A visit from a Troyes side who have won just four games all season is a favourable one for the hosts, but their record of having failed to score in just 27% of their away games this season sets this one up nicely. A best bet prediction for Marseille to win and both teams to score looks good here.

Troyes look doomed

Winning just four games from 30 is a shocking display of how poor this Troyes side have been, although their nine draws have elevated them to 18th in the league. Their tally of 21 points so far this season has them sitting seven points off safety, and with eight games to go it looks very unlikely they’ll close that gap.

Troyes conceded an average of 2.67 goals per game away from home, and average a total of 4.13 goals per game in their away fixtures this season. Marseille, meanwhile, have seen both teams score in 73% of their home games, and the same looks likely on Sunday. A correct score prediction of 3-1 Marseille stands out.
