This game has the potential to be the most exciting game of the weekend in Ligue 1. Rudi Garcia, Marseille’s coach has got off to a slow start with the 2010 champions but he has been very vocal lately about the team’s performances, and he is happy. For Garcia a good performance is better than the result even if his side lose, because for him this will be good in the long run. However fans have not been happy who obviously want results now. For now judgement is reserved on Garcia but his side need a good December.
Marseille are 11th with one win in their past 5 games and if they lose to Nancy they will see the visitors leapfrog them. At home they have a better record where they are undefeated. However from 7 matches at the Velodrome they have drawn three of those. But the club have huge problem getting goals at home, just 6 all season. Only Nantes has a worse record with three. However Marseille has only conceded 1 goal, the same as PSG.
When Nancy lost 6-0 to Monaco a few weeks ago it seemed that the club had reached a new low. Pressure was on Coach Pablo Correa who has been in charge since 2013, but his side have responded since then. Two wins and a draw have seen the team remain unbeaten for three weeks. The big win came in midweek with a thumping 4-0 win over Metz and the team come into this game with a lot of confidence. However they have won just 1 game away from home all season.
Marseille vs Nancy: Head-to-head Stats
The teams haven’t met since 2013 where Nancy came here and won 1-0. The last three results have finished 1-0 and the last two matches have been 0-0 at half time. Marseille have 5 wins from the past 8 matches at Velodrome over Nancy.
Marseille vs Nancy: Prediction
We’re going to go for Bafetimbi Gomis again like we did last time out. He let us down, but at home we expect he can score. He is very motivated to do so. Despite a lack of goals in this fixture this has the potential to have a few and over 2.5 goals should be taken on. But main bet is for Gomis.
