Lyon vs Olympique de Marseille: The opponents are worthy of each other

Lyon plays host to Olympique de Marseille in round 14 of French Ligue 1. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

 In 21 rounds, Lyon has managed to score 31 points, and thanks to that, they only finished 11th in the Ligue 1 table. However, there is a chance of making things right. The team are just three points behind the Eurocup zone, and should they be successful in the upcoming game, they could quickly move up a few places.

Lyon hasn't lost in the league for the last six games. They have two wins (1:0 against Troyes and 1:0 against Saint-Etienne) and four draws (2:2 with Bordeaux, 0:0 against Lille, 1:1 against Metz and PSG).

Marseille is doing markedly better this season and is even in contention for second place in the table. They are only two points behind relegated Nice. During the last two rounds, Marseille got to a pretty upsetting 1:1 draw with Lille and confidently outplayed Lens in two goals (2:0). It should also be noted that the Olympians reached the French Cup quarter-finals after beating Montpellier on penalties (1:1, penalty shootout 5:4).

Both Lyon and Marseille cannot lose points in the upcoming game. The bookmakers have made a bizarre choice, favouring the hosts when the Southerners show excellent football. In this pairing, we predict a total over match. Prediction: Both Teams To Score + Total Over (2.5).
