Sunday 7th February 2016 – Kickoff: 2100hrs
Football – France – Ligue 1 Betting Tips
Marseille extended their unbeaten run in Ligue 1 to eleven matches during the week when they secured the points in a 1-0 win away at Montpellier, but they’ll be tested to the limit on Sunday night when they entertain runaway league leaders PSG.
But too many draws have hampered their progress up the league table as they still only remain in 9th spot while at their Stade Velodrome they’ve been held to five stalemates on the trot along with failing to win in their last nine on home turf!
Marseille’s overall home record stands at 2-7-3 20/14 with 5 of their 12 home matches resulting in over 2.5 goals but both teams have scored in 8 of 12, while striker Batshuayi (12 goals) leads the way for the hosts.
Onto PSG, and they continued to steamroller their way to another Ligue 1 title during the week when they registered a 3-1 home win over Lorient which extended their winning streak to eight matches on the trot overall.
Away from home, PSG still remain unbeaten on their travels with an overall record of 11-2-0 24/3 along with having won their last four away matches on the trot with wins at Nice, Caen, Toulouse and Saint Etienne.
Only 5 of their 13 away matches have ended up over 2.5 goals, but with prolific striker Ibrahimovic (20 goals) and Cavani (11 goals) in their ranks, PSG are more than capable of scoring all three required goals by themselves.
I’m backing that the hosts can score at least one goals here tonight, while we can leave the rest to Ibrahimovic who has racked up 5 goals in his last 5 Ligue 1 matches.
