Marseille hosts Amiens in round 28 of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Friday, March 6th at Stade Vélodrome (Marseille)
After a home misfire in the round before last (Marseille lost to Nantes), the team beat Nimes in the last away match. By the way, the loss to Nantes was the first for Marseille since November last year. Since then, the Olympians played 16 matches and won in 12 of them. Their pursuers, third Lille and fourth Rennes, were also beaten. Marseille takes second place, and it won’t catch up with leading PSG. But silver medals are unlikely to be gained. Marseille is eight points ahead of Rennes.

Amiens gained the last victory in the championship on November 2. Since then, the team played 15 matches in the tournament and lost in nine of them. As a result, it takes the penultimate place in the standings. The saving 17th line is five points ahead. Theoretically, the team can win back this margin since there are 11 more rounds to play. But with the game that Amiens demonstrates, it is hard to believe in its comeback. Well, if you lose to 15th Metz and tie with 17th Dijon, what kind of rebound can be discussed?
These are teams from different poles of the standings, having different ambitions and qualifications of the squads. If Marseille does not fool around, it will gain a confident victory. And it will not fool around. Still, the 8-points margin from Rennes does not guarantee second place in the championship. And Marseille probably will not squander this handicap in a game against an outsider. By the way, Amiens dared to beat its counterpart in the first leg match at home. All the worse for it - Marseille will be very motivated to take vengeance and will probably take it.
Prediction for the match: Marseille to win
