There’s also action from the French top flight with a Ligue 1 clash between Amiens and Marseille as the betting tips continue at the Stade Crédit Agricole de la Licorne.
Amiens Prediction – Can Amiens lift to mid-table position?
Having won just 1 out of their last 6 matches in the French top flight, the odds seem to be stacked against Amiens from gaining all three points in this Friday night clash with high-flying Marseille, with their one success during this period being a 2-1 win away at fourth from bottom club, Metz.
Within this recent 6-match period, Amiens have suffered 3 defeats (to Nantes, Toulouse and Bordeaux) along with draws against Lyon and Angers, and current form suggests that the hosts might well be happy with a point here as they look for greater stability.
On home turf at their Stade Crédit Agricole de la Licorne, the season started in bright fashion for Amiens who recorded a 1-0 win over Lille (who now sit in 4th place), but subsequently slumped to defeats against Nantes and Bordeaux with a draw against Lyon in-between.
The hosts have proved to be stubborn on home turf in the past though as they’ve lost just 4 of their last 15 matches in Ligue 1, although they’ve been second best in each of their last 4 meetings against Marseille, who have handed out 4 defeats on the trot to Amiens in previous exchanges.
Marseille Prediction – Can Marseille continue dominance over Amiens?
By contrast, Marseille have enjoyed a much more consistent start to their new Ligue 1 campaign as the visitors have suffered just 1 defeat out of their first 8 matches of the new French top flight season, which was a surprise 2-0 defeat at home to Reims on the opening day of the new term.
However, Marseille have since bounced back and responded in positive fashion by putting together a solid looking 7-match unbeaten sequence in Ligue 1 which includes wins against Nice, Saint-Etienne and Monaco, as well as remaining unbeaten away from home after their first 4 matches on the road.
Indeed, Marseille are the only side that have yet to taste defeat on their travels in Ligue 1 as they boast an away record of 2-2-0 6/4, which includes victories at Nice and Monaco and their consistent results away from home extend into last season too.
Overall, Marseille are unbeaten in their last 7 matches away from home and having held the upper hand over Amiens in previous exchanges, the visitors look set for further success here on Friday night.
Key-Facts – Amiens v Marseille
- Amiens have lost just 4 of their last 15 home matches in Ligue 1
- Marseille are unbeaten in their last 7 matches away from home in Ligue 1

Betting Tips Verdict
Amiens have been stubborn at home but they’ve been powerless to stop Marseille in their previous 4 meetings. Marseille with the draw no bet option looks the play here.
