Olympique Lyonnais - Olympique Marseille predictions

Though Olympique Lyonnais definitely have a shot at winning this match, they’ll need to work for it. Olympique Marseille are somewhat stronger, but the home-field advantage may be what the hosts need to shift the balance in their favour.

Given their reputation for perseverance, we expect Olympique Marseille to give their best effort in this match.

Having conceded an early goal in their last round’s clash, Olympique Lyonnais did everything they could to get back in the game. However, the second period did not bring the desired change and the match ended in a narrow Olympique Lyonnais_LAST_HOME defeat.

Olympique Marseille had a slight advantage in form going into the previous round, and betting predictions were rather optimistic. However, the first half did not go their way, and they barely managed to equalize before the final whistle and get away with a 2:2 draw.

With 6 concessions over the last 3 matches, Olympique Lyonnais will definitely have to make some improvements in their defensive line.

Based on Olympique Marseille’s recent performances, a null result is not very likely. They got on the scoreboard in all 7 of their previous Ligue 1 outings and the trend is highly likely to continue.

The home team’s main goal as we enter round 20 is getting as far away from the relegation zone as possible. Though challenging, a victory here would be a great way to do so.

The visitors are looking for a way to break into the topmost few spots on the table, but that’s not an easy task this Sunday. There are plenty of games still to be played, of course, with a good chunk of the season still ahead of us.

As far as the head-to-head stats are concerned, Olympique Marseille already confirmed their status as favourites. They defeated the away team previously in the season, leaving little doubt as to which squad is in better form.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.98 if you use the 1xbet sportsbook.
