Competence: League 1
Market: Mason Greenwood will score at any time
Odd: 6/5 @BetUS
Desperately seeking a much-welcome Ligue 1 boost on Wednesday night, Marseille will host Angers at the Stade Velodrome.
Starting with the hosts, who suffered a collapse in Lens over the weekend and eventually lost 2-1, Marseille are looking for an immediate response here. Likewise, seeing their five-win streak end abruptly earlier in the month when they suffered another 2-1 defeat against Sporting Lisbon while in Champions League action, Roberto De Zerbi’s side suffered back-to-back defeats for the first time since the 2025/26 campaign opened. However, having returned from the October international break with a dramatic 6-2 win against Le Havre, the former Brighton boss is still dreaming of a chance at a true Ligue 1 title this season. Although Marseille might have continued to show some prolonged defensive problems, Wednesday’s hosts have continued to shine with their prolonged success at home. After closing out September with a dominant 4-0 win against Dutch heavyweights Ajax, De Zerbi’s side have won their first five meetings at the Stade Velodrome by an aggregate score of 20-4.
As for the visitors, who gained essential momentum over the weekend by claiming a 2-0 home win against Lorient, Angers will be desperate to use that brave performance as a platform to build on. However, heading into October’s half-week with a 5-0 win in Strasbourg, Alexandre Dujeux’s team is still in the thick of the relegation fight. Going into Wednesday’s clash just one point clear of the relegation zone, Les Scoistes have managed just one win in any of their eight previous Ligue 1 clashes, a streak stretching back to the opening weekend. Considered a crushing underdog when they travel to the Stade Velodrome here, Angers have continued to show some glaring problems on the road. As well as picking up just one point from their first four meetings away from the Stade Raymond Kopa, Dujeux’s side have also recorded just one Ligue 1 victory on their travels since mid-February.
