Tip of the game

Match Preview

Marseille are continuing to prove their worth at the top end of Ligue 1 this season with an unbeaten start leaving them third ahead of a trip to the Alianz Riviera were Nice come into the game off the back of a thrilling Europa Conference League encounter.

Marseille finished second in Ligue 1 last season, losing out to the dominant Paris-Saint Germain, but at the very least, the club were comfortably ahead of the rest of the pack in the fight for the European spots.

The French giants have defeated Reims 4-1 on the opening weekend in a magnificent display that saw Luis Suarez net two goals off the bench following on from a debut Ligue 1 goal from Nuno Tavares.

A 1-1 draw with Brest saw Marseille have to grind out a point against a stubborn home side, but by beating Nantes 2-1, Marseille have shown their strengths in attack at points this season, but failed to keep a clean sheet since the end of the last season.

Nice have struggled so far in Ligue 1, and following on from a red card in midweek and another dismissal the week before in a 1-0 loss to Clermont Foot, the club are looking very ill-discipliend as well. They did, however, manage to beat Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Europa Conference League qualifiers with a 113th-minute winner from Alexis Beka.

Lucien Favre’s men have also drawn with Strasbourg and Toulouse in the league so far this season, and it leaves them way down in 16th with barely anything to shout about after five games in all competitions in just three weeks already.
