Nantes vs Marseille Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in French Ligue 1 on Wednesday, 1 February 2023.
Marseille are in possession of the third spot in the table, and are giving a tough chase to defending champions PSG.
Meanwhile, Nantes are on a good stretch of performances too, but they need to find a solution for the high number of draws they register.
The reverse fixture ended in a 2-1 win for Marseille, and they are also on a three-game winning streak. In fact, they scored two or more goals in three of the last five h2h encounters, and importantly they are unbeaten at this venue in the past five years.
Marseille have an unbeaten record in the last three years, and a 100% winning record in the past two years. They are also in contention for a podium finish this season in the Ligue 1, and have been one of the best teams in the league for quite some years now.
Meanwhile Nantes are struggling to find consistency. As a matter of fact they have a single league win at home in more than three months, and this sole victory came against the 19th placed Auxerre.
As things stand, it is expected that Marseille will deliver a winning performance this Wednesday.
Only PSG and Monaco have scored more goals than Marseille this season in the French top flight. They scored two or more goals in seven of their former nine fixtures, and in 100% of their road trips since September.
Going on, Nantes failed to score at home just once in the past five appearances, and most importantly seven of the past ten overall h2h meetings had three or more goals.
Both teams have been scoring consistently, and as such it looks as if we are in line for a high-scoring affair this Wednesday.
Marseille might be the favorites for the day – but do take into account the fact that they have a single clean sheet to their name on the road in league games since September. On top of that 12 of the previous 15 h2h clashes also had goals from either side of the pitch.
As such, chances are quite high for goals to come from either end of the pitch.
Marseille won the reverse fixture, and they also have a perfect winning record in h2h meetings in the last two years. They are also the best team in the competition based on recent form. They are placed third in the table, and won four of the past five Ligue 1 fixtures.
On the other hand Nantes registered just three league wins in total after September, and their only league victory at this stadium in the past three months came against the 19th placed Auxerre.
As such, Marseille to Win at an odd of 1.90 appears to be the best tip for the day.
Going on, they scored 17 goals from their last six league games, and scored five goals from the past two h2h clashes. Moreover, Nantes were able to record just three clean sheets in total at home all through this season in all competitions.
Likely, the Over 1.5 Team Goals by Marseille would be a good choice at an odd of 1.83.
