Nimes hosts Marseille in round 13 of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Friday, December 4th at Stade des Costières (Nimes)
The Crocodiles could relegate from Ligue 1, but the decision of the organizers in the spring saved them. Firstly, they decided not to finish the season, and secondly, to keep the 18th team in the elite. In the new competition, Jerome Arpinon's men started with a 4-0 victory over Brest. Then Nimes had a streak of three rounds in a row without defeat. But, starting from the second half of autumn, the club began to decline. In the last six matches, it suffered five defeats and gained only one minimal victory (over Reims on the road). Last Sunday, the Crocodiles lost to Monaco (0:3) and dropped to 16th place. Distance to Lorient in the relegation zone is only three points.

Marseille played in the Champions League only on Tuesday. Villas-Boas called it a pitiful campaign, and for good reason - the French set an anti-record streak, which was interrupted only on Tuesday. However, things in Ligue 1 are definitely getting better. The Olympians are ahead of all teams in terms of expected points (including PSG, which has not won in two rounds in a row). And they have a good winning streak in the local arena. The 3-1 victory over Nantes was the fourth in a row. Florian Tauvin opened the scoring already in the second minute. The 27-year-old midfielder has four goals and five assists in 10 matches in the new season, but the contract with the footballer is valid only until next summer, and it's no surprise that the club's bosses are afraid that he will leave for free in 2021. For example, last week there was information about Milan's readiness to provide a football player from France with a contract with a 3-million salary.
Nimes is not in the best shape now, but Marseille seems to have gained momentum. We recommend betting on the victory of the visitors since they look much stronger in all game components.
Prediction for the match: Marseille to win
