Third, but somehow still not completely satisfied? No, Olympique Marseille still doesn’t really know what to do with the current situation! Consistency is a foreign word, making it all the more important to finally get into a positive streak.
The start is to be made on Sunday, in Brittany the sky-blue are favored.
In my Nantes Marseille betting tip, I will now tell you why the guests could well falter again and why I therefore have my eye on “BTS”.
1:1, 5:0, 0:3? The last three results alone leave me a little at a loss! Those who support Olympique Marseille will find it difficult to properly assess this start to the season.
With four wins and a draw, the team got off to a very strong start, and I was particularly impressed by the 15 goals scored. Unfortunately, the streak ended much too soon, and the team is now playing much more uncertainly.
The surprising 0-1 defeat to Strasbourg left many questions unanswered, and the 1-1 draw against Angers was also not planned that way. Marseille then celebrated a 5-0 win against Montpellier, only to lose 3-0 in the top match against Paris a few days later.
The bottom line is that they have only won one of their last four matches, and Montpellier is known to be one of the candidates for relegation! The fact that they like to make mistakes defensively is not that new.
Only against Nice and Montpellier did they keep a clean sheet, with eleven goals conceded, their defense is not one of the best. Perhaps it will help that there is an away game on the program again.
5:1 against Brest (CL participants!), 3:1 in Toulouse, 3:2 against Lyon and 5:0 against Montpellier, all away games have been won except for the 0:1 against Strasbourg! In addition, there is a spectacular-looking average of exactly five goals per game (only the wins are counted).
Interesting: the odds for over 2.5 goals on Sunday against Nantes are not only skyrocketing at Betano to an approximate 1.90. Nine different players have scored so far, with Mason Greenwood being the most prolific with six goals.
FC Nantes have not been an opponent that Marseille have found particularly challenging in recent years. Olympique are unbeaten in their last eight games, winning six of them.
It’s hard to believe that there was a period before that when they couldn’t manage a win five times in a row. 1:1, 2:0, 1:0, 1:1, 0:0? The most recent results of the away games don’t exactly sound like a spectacle!
Maybe the bookmaker experts took a look at the direct comparison and that’s why they set the odds for over 2.5 goals so high. Nevertheless, the favorite is of course playing in blue and white.
The Marseille win rate averages 2.00, but for the home side, we are at 3.75. No wonder, after all, Nantes have not celebrated a win since the third matchday.
Three draws and three defeats, things are no longer going well in Brittany. Six goals have been scored in that period, and only against Lyon and Toulouse did they not concede any.
Perhaps it will help the canaries that this is a home game again. They have only lost 1-2 at home to Reims, and that in the most bitter way possible, conceding a goal in injury time!
They beat Auxerre 2-0, drew with St. Etienne (2-2) and Nice (1-1). Strong and weak at the same time: Nantes always score the 1-0 at home.
This also means that a lead often does not last. If you score the first goal of the game against Marseille, you would be able to take odds of 2.40 at Oddset, where the Oddest Bonus is also available.
Of course, the fact that the yellow team has never lost twice in a row is also interesting. Since they last lost 1-3 to Strasbourg, they could actually get off lightly against Marseille.
FC Nantes have their work cut out to stop the downward trend. The canaries have not won in a while, but in my opinion, they are not doing too badly. The problem is that they often squander leads at home.
Olympique Marseille are, of course, one of the top teams, and the sky blues are strong away from home and have enjoyed playing Nantes for years. Nevertheless, the guest team can also wobble, especially defensively.
For these reasons, I have decided to let Nantes play along. And since they almost always score at home, my tip is:
Both teams to score!
