Olympique Marseille - Nîmes betting tips and odds

Olympique Marseille are seen as favourites to win this match against Nîmes. The betting odds indicate an easy win and anything but a home victory here would indeed be a big surprise.

Nîmes are massive underdogs and will be extremely lucky to avoid complete annihilation at the hands of Olympique Marseille.

The previous round was quite uneventful for Olympique Marseille. Most of the game at Dijon was spent without either side gaining or maintaining an advantage. In the end, a 0:0 draw was not a great look for a team widely expected to win, as Olympique Marseille were.

Nîmes were up against impossible odds in their previous home game. Quite predictably, they lost it 0:1 to Lille. Given the 8.00 odds for a home win, it’s hard to imagine a different outcome.

Olympique Marseille’s form is fairly strong when it comes to offense – they netted 6 goals in the last three away games.

Nîmes’s defence seems to be their most prominent weakness at the moment. Having allowed 9 goals in their previous 3 games, it might be a good time to look at Over 3.5 Goals betting markets when it comes to their next match.

Though Olympique Marseille are in the upper half of the Ligue 1 table, they’re 1 point behind European places. Current state of affairs is not exactly what we’d consider a success. However, their fans are hoping that the showdown against Nîmes will be a step in the right direction.

The season hasn’t been going great for Nîmes. They’re stuck at 20th place, well within the relegation zone. To make things worse, their chances of earning points against Olympique Marseille are not great either.

Going for a straight Result bet would severely limit your profits, so our advice is to throw in a -1.5 Asian Handicap for the favourites. This will still keep the odds in your favour at 2.08, but should do wonders for potential profitability.
