Match preview for PSG v Marseille
A highly anticipated Ligue 1 showdown is set as Paris Saint-Germain host long-time rivals Marseille this weekend.
PSG are coming off an impressive Champions League victory over Liverpool and will look to continue their strong domestic form as they charge towards another Ligue 1 title.
Marseille are their closest competitors, but sit 16 points behind.
The hosts would very much like to stretch that gap to 19, but it will not be an easy task against Roberto De Zerbi’s side.
Nonetheless, with home advantage and superior squad depth, PSG are strong favourites.
Marseille, though competitive, may struggle to contain PSG’s attack, especially with Ousmanne Dembele in peak form. History also favours PSG, with 26 wins from their 35 encounters.
Given the attacking talents on both sides, expect an entertaining battle with goals from each team.

Team news for PSG v Marseille
Luis Enrique’s side remain in dominant form, leading the league and boasting a fully fit squad.
Their attack has been relentless, netting 16 goals in their last five games, with Dembele shining as the league’s top scorer (20 goals).
Meanwhile Marseille have faced plenty of injury setbacks, with Amine Harit, Michael Murillo, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, and Ruben Blanco unavailable.
Hojbjerg’s absence, in particular, will impact their midfield stability. Despite these challenges, Marseille’s attack has remained productive, scoring nine goals in their last five matches.
Expected line-ups for PSG v Marseille
PSG: Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Neves, Fabian, Vitinha; Dembele, Kvaratskhelia, Barcola.
Marseille: Rulli; Lirola, Balerdi, Kondogbia; Henrique, Bennacer, Dedic, Merlin; Rabiot, Maupay, Greenwood.

The Stats for PSG v Marseille
- Paris Saint-Germain have won 6 of the last 8 matches while scoring more than 2.5 goals
- Paris Saint-Germain have won 8 of the last 10 matches in the Ligue 1
- Marseille have won 7 of the last 9 away matches while scoring more than 1.5 goals
- In the last 5 Marseille away matches in the Ligue 1, the number of goals was under 3.5
Prediction
It has never really been in question, but should PSG win here, the title race is all but over.
A 19-point lead in March would be almost impossible to catch, especially considering the hosts are yet to lose in the division this term.
And while Marseille are certainly a strong side under De Zerbi, PSG’s quality is likely to outshine them.
Prediciton: PSG 3-0 Marseille
