📋 Team News: Marseille

We think that Les Olympiens will probably employ a 3-4-3 formation in the match featuring Geronimo Rulli, Benjamin Pavard, Leonardo Balerdi, Emerson, Timothy Weah, Himad Abdelli, P. Hoejbjerg, Hamed Traore, Mason Greenwood, P. Aubameyang and Ethan Nwaneri.

🗞️ Team News: Nice

We’re of the thinking that Les Aiglons will likely play in a 3-4-2-1 formation by sending out Maxime Dupe, Antoine Mendy, Juma Bah, Kojo Peprah Oppong, Jonathan Clauss, Hicham Boudaoui, Salis Abdul Samed, Melvin Bard, Tom Louchet, Morgan Sanson and Elye Wahi.

✨ Prediction

We’re of the view that Nice have it within them to find the net against this Marseille outfit, but that might not prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.

We’re going for a close game with a 2-1 winning margin for Marseille at full-time. Could easily see this go either way.
