Olympique Marseille - Toulouse predictions

A quick look at the betting odds with some of the biggest bookmakers online is enough to tell you who the favourites are. Priced at 1.63, a home win seems the obvious choice. An upset is not quite impossible, mind you, which adds a small degree of risk but is ultimately food increasing profits.

From the current viewpoint, the situation is straightforward. Given the strength of Olympique Marseille and the fact that Toulouse are given 5.41 odds to win, it is easy to see that an Toulouse victory would be a shocking surprise.

Top online bookies priced Olympique Marseille winning their previous Ligue 1 match at 4.02 despite the home-field disadvantage, and they delivered on such expectations. They took an early lead and only increased it as the game progressed, finally recording a 1:5 away win.

Losing in front of the home crowd hurts and it feels even worse when you’re a 1.71 favourite to win and Toulouse felt in on their own skin last time out against Angers SCO.

A quick look at the recent trends reveals a solid record for Olympique Marseille, who have managed to score 5 times in their previous 3 matches. This means that markets like BTTS or Over 5 Goals are worth your attention.

The only noteworthy trend we can note for Toulouse is that their latest two home games ended up confirming the Under 5 Goals market. You should probably keep this in mind when choosing the most suitable bet for this fixture.

Considering their strong relative form, the home team has a great shot at closing some of the 2 -point difference they need to take the lead in the standings.

The visitors are hoping to put some more distance between them and the relegation zone, which is currently only 5 points away. With a team like Olympique Marseille coming up, though, that might be difficult. They’re clear underdogs in this matchup. Thankfully, the season is still in its early stages.

Looking back at the head-to-head history of this matchup, it’s understandable why most bookmakers online decided to price a home win at 1.63. They soundly defeated Toulouse last season, and it’s reasonable to expect another triumph.

Saturday's match will see both teams at their strongest, with no players missing due to injury or suspension.

Though it’s a stretch, a Draw bet is likely the best option when it comes to betting on this match. With the odds at 4.16 with Pncl, it’s not exactly the safest of bets – but it’s quite strong when it comes to value.
