Olympique Marseille - Strasbourg betting tips and odds

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

The situation is crystal clear from the current perspective. Given the strength of the home team and the fact Strasbourg are given 8.00 betting odds to win, a conclusion is not difficult to reach. Anything but a home win would be an incredible surprise.

The previous round of the Ligue 1 saw Olympique Marseille secure a rather straightforward victory. Playing as the away team in a matchup with Rennes, they broke the tie with a goal in the second half, securing the 0:1 victory.

Strasbourg lost their most recent Ligue 1 match despite playing at home, which was obviously not the outcome their supporters were hoping for. The betting odds implied they had a fairly good chance of winning, but they quickly lost momentum due to an early-game concession.

The hosts are here after a series of home games marked by a high concession rate. For instance, they yielded more than 5 goals over the previous 3 matches at Orange Vélodrome.

The records show a rather unimpressive away game track record for Strasbourg. They’ve allowed more than 5 times in their latest 3 away outings.

The hosts are moving into round 27 with a lot of confidence. They are among the best-placed teams – and we’re at a point in the season where teams are solidifying their positions.

The away team are placed fairly low as number 16th in the standings, and they’re not likely to win any points in this game either. For now, their only goal is staying out of the relegation zone, though the competition can get fierce this late in the season.

Strasbourg and Olympique Marseille tied several times this season, leaving us with inconclusive head-to-head stats. Olympique Marseille are still considered more likely to come out on top this Sunday, though, so the home-field advantage might be enough to finally swing things in their favour.

Sunday's matchup will see both teams at full strength, free of injuries and suspensions.

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 1.90, but should do wonders for potential profitability.
