Olympique Marseille - Olympique Lyonnais betting tips and odds

Olympique Marseille are not exactly firm favourites to register three points in this game but we still believe they will manage to defeat Olympique Lyonnais. The odds of 2.23 might sound a bit risky but we still trust hosts can come out on top in the end.

Olympique Lyonnais are heading into a difficult fight, but it’s far from hopeless. They may need to bring their best, but the match can go any way at this point. The odds of an away win are 3.35 right now, which means the favourites are far from clear.

Previously in the Ligue 1, Olympique Marseille missed a decent opportunity at locking down 3 points in an away game. The bookies were fairly optimistic about their odds despite the home-field disadvantage, and they went on to earn a small lead in the first 45 minutes. Unfortunately, though, they botched the lead and had to settle for a draw game.

The away team spent more than half of their previous Ligue 1 match in a deadlock, but eventually narrowly won. That said, such an outcome was relatively predictable – the two teams were relatively close in terms of form, but Olympique Lyonnais had the advantage of playing at home.

Sitting 5th in the league standings, Olympique Marseille are 3 points behind a Europa League qualification spot. The standings will be prone to change, though, considering the season is still in its early stages.

Most online sportsbooks agree that Olympique Marseille are more likely to win this match, which goes against what we’ve seen from this matchup last season. Olympique Lyonnais recorded a decisive victory on that occasion, which means an upset this Sunday is not impossible.

Despite being seen as underdogs by most online bookmakers, the visiting team will be able to give their all this Sunday. They have no reported injuries or suspensions going in, so at least they’ll be able to rely on their best players and strategies.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the Betsson priced at 2.15 odds.
