Bordeaux vs Marseille Prediction & Match Preview

Aron Wright - January 5, 2022

Bordeaux vs Marseille 
France – Ligue 1 
Date: Friday, 7 January 2022 
Kick-off at 20:00 UK/ 21:00 CET 
Venue: Matmut Atlantique. 

Marseille have been one of the best in the French top flight this season, and they have a realistic chance of securing a top-two finish at the end of the campaign. They have a game in hand, and still are level on points with the second-placed Nice. 

They are finding the back of the net at great consistency, and so far have had the best defense in the entire league. 

Meanwhile, Bordeaux have been one of the weakest in the league. They are barely hanging above the relegation cut-off, and have managed a total of just two wins so far. 

They have also conceded the most number of goals of all the teams in the competition, and have a poor h2h record against this foe over the years as well. 

Taking into account these observations, expect a win for Marseille this Friday at the Matmut Atlantique.
