Marseille vs Lille Predictions

• Marseille are unbeaten at home across all competitions.
• L’OM have taken 10 points from a possible 12 in Ligue 1 at the Velodrome.
• Lille have just one win in five attempts away from home.

Home comforts key for L’OM

Marseille have endured a tough start to the season in Ligue 1 but their home form has been strong ahead of the visit of Lille on Saturday.

L’OM have 12 points on the board after nine games, six fewer than their opponents this weekend, but 10 of those have come in their four home games.

Lille sit fourth in the standings but much of their success has also come at home, and they have managed just one win in five attempts away from home.

Marseille can claim the spoils

A win for Marseille looks a strong option for our main bet given their impressive record at the Velodrome. Les Phoceens haven’t lost at this venue in any competition this season and have only conceded one goal in Ligue 1, scoring seven themselves.

Lille have only lost one away game but have also only won one of their five league trips and they are winless in their last four trips to Marseille, losing two and drawing two, so a home win stands out here.

Lille can grab a goal

Marseille have a great record defensively at home but Lille have scored in all five of their Ligue 1 away games, hitting seven goals in total. As such, the hosts may need to score twice to claim three points and a 2-1 home win is the correct score prediction.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has only managed one goal in France’s top flight but he has managed five goals in all competitions this season and was excellent against Le Harve in Marseille’s last home league game, scoring a goal and recording an assist, so he looks a good candidate for an anytime goal on Saturday.
