BORDEAUX V MARSEILLE PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS

Bordeaux (6^th) won a second match in a row last week to stay among the top teams of the league. They are currently in 6^th place with 21 points from 12 games, with 5 wins 6 draws and 1 loss. This leaves them just 2 points off the top of the table, Bordeaux could be a part of top 3 if they win against Marseille. Bordeaux is undefeated at home in 5 games (2 wins, 3 draws).

Marseille (2^nd) is currently a potential leader of the league as they have the same number of points than Paris with a game in hand to play against Lyon. Marseille has a good record when playing away, with 4 wins and 2 losses out of 6 games.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

After an accomplished performance, Bordeaux literally humiliated Lorient on his stadium Moustoir (0-4) last week. Thanks to this win, Bordeaux’s players are repositioning themselves in the race for Europe. They regained confidence now and will host Marseille on Sunday with a full squad.

For Marseille last week as been frustrating, indeed, as against Monchengladbach in Europa league last Thursday, Marseille’s players have conceded a frustrating draw against Nice in view of its domination (2-2). Besides, striker Loic Remy, who was supposed to replace Gignac during his injury got injured as well this week-end. The good news comes from defense where Souleyman Diawara make his return to competition last week-end and will be fit to face Bordeaux on Sunday.

BORDEAUX V MARSEILLE PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETTING PREVIEW

Being the home team, Bordeaux is favourite, best odd can be found with Tipico at 2.40, draw is priced at 3.10 with Betsson and Marseille to win is offered at 3.50 with Pinnacle.

Marseille’s players didn’t manage to win in Bordeaux since 1971 in official matches. Besides Bordeaux ‘s team showed enough qualities this season to beat Marseille. Last year, Bordeaux won 2-1 and both teams drew in Marseille (0-0). Therefore, I think the draw is a good option to try with the free bet offer.

Bordeaux’s home games have an average of 1.2 goals, and Marseille’s away games have an average of 1 goal, so even if the Over 2.5 is where the value is for this market I don’t except many goals and will bet on the under here.
