Olympique Marseille Saint-Étienne betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this challenge will be Marseille winning. It is true that the home club have some absences of weight, however, they are very motivated after having beaten PSG. Thus, it is expected that Thauvin and company's team will put their favoritism in the field and have the best goal opportunities.

Marseille come to this clash motivated after a 0-1 away triumph over PSG: Thauvin, in the 31', scored the only goal of the match. The home team usually play in a 4-3-3, favoring a faster playing style, with the three most advanced players being Payet, López and Thauvin. The man responsible for defining and leading his team's attacks is the Frenchman Valentin Rongier. It should be noted that coach André Villas-Boas should not be able to count on Sanson and Sarr because they are injured. It should be noted that Amavi and Benedetto will also be out for being suspended.

Confirmed Lineup: Steve Mandanda, Leonardo Balerdi, Duje Ćaleta-Car, Boubacar Kamara, Hiroki Sakai, Álvaro González, Dimitri Payet, Maxime López, Morgan Sanson, Valentin Rongier, Florian Thauvin.

Analysis Saint-Étienne

The away team makes its debut in this edition of the competition, after having finished 17th last season.

In their away mathes there is a tendency for goals, since 16 of the last 24 matches have ended with Over 2,5 goals.

Saint-Étienne come to this round motivated after a 2-0 home win over Strasbourg: Bouanga and Camara scored the goals of the triumph. The away team should play in a 4-3-3 tactical system, and should adopt a more defensive posture, taking into account that they play away from home. The player responsible for targeting the opposing goal is the French Hamouma, and his best quality is the finishing. The away coach should not be able to count on Gabriel Silva because he is injured.
