Marseille vs Brest Prediction – Ligue 1

Currently, the home side occupies 2nd place in the league, having amassed 55 points through 17 victories, 4 draws, and 9 losses. Before this match, they suffered a defeat against Monaco (3-0) but bounced back with a remarkable 5-1 victory at home against Montpellier. In their last 10 league matches played at their Stadium, Marseille have secured 23 points, with 7 wins, 2 draws, and only 1 loss. However, their defence has not been top-notch, allowing goals in 8 of these last 10 matches; nonetheless, the attack is consistent, with goals scored in 7 of the last 10 fixtures. Notably, there has been a tendency for goals in their home games, as 14 of their last 15 home matches in this competition have ended with over 1.5 goals. Although they’ve conceded the first goal in 13 games out of 30, they have managed to overturn the deficit in 4 instances.

Motivation is high in the Marseille camp after their recent 5-1 victory over Montpellier, with goals from Mason Greenwood (2), Adrien Rabiot, Jonathan Rowe, and an own goal from Wilfried Nndollo Bille. They typically adopt a 3-4-3 formation, favouring deliberate ball circulation in midfield while emphasising organisation as a core strategy for their attacking plays. Key players such as Mason Greenwood, Adrien Rabiot, and Amine Gouiri form a potent trio, dedicated to exploiting weaknesses in the opposition’s defence. The right flank is frequently utilised in attacking plays, with Luis Henry providing depth and agility. However, Valentin Rongier is suspended for this match.
