Olympique Marseille - Toulouse predictions

The home team is the obvious choice for anyone looking to bet on favourites. The match is not completely one-sided, though, which is why you may actually get worthwhile returns.

It would be a minor miracle for Toulouse to win at Olympique Marseille, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 4.61 price on most online sportsbooks.

The hosts went into their previous Ligue 1 matchup as favourites, but things didn’t exactly go as planned. They quickly fell behind and were unable to make a comeback for the entire game. Worse yet, they were widely considered to be the stronger team before kick-off, which makes the 3:1 loss a notable upset.

The previous round of the Ligue 1 saw Toulouse lose a home game against Brest to a 2:4 goal difference. The 4.07 betting odds implied it should have been a close call, but they were behind throughout the bout.

With 7 concessions over the last 3 matches, Olympique Marseille will definitely have to make some improvements in their defensive line.

The away team’s defensive record is slipping. They’ve conceded more than 5 times in their previous 3 Ligue 1 engagements. This, at least, points to this match as a decent choice for something like an Over 5 Goals bet.

Even though they are occupying the Champions League spot, Olympique Marseille need 22 points to reach the very top of the ladder. This upcoming match offers a decent shot at closing the difference behind the league leaders.

Olympique Marseille played as the visitors the last time they participated in this showdown, but they managed to win anyway. As such, it’s quite clear why they’re the favourites this Sunday, even though the victory was with a one-goal difference.

The hosts went through a slew of unfortunate injuries recently, rendering some of their players unavailable for the match this Sunday. Faris Pemi Moumbagna, Amine Harit, Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, Luiz Felipe will not be playing, though the team is still considered likely to win.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.93 odds offered at Pncl.
