Marseille Preview – Can Marseille get off the mark?
Tuesday night’s hosts, Marseille, were handed a 1-0 defeat away from home in last week’s opening match in Group C away at Olympiakos, but although they bounced back in the French domestic top flight on the weekend with a 1-0 win on the road at Lorient, they face another tough clash in the Champions League here against Manchester City.
Early results in this new season have produced a mixed return for Marseille as they’ve picked up just four wins from their first nine matches in all competitions which have all been achieved in Ligue 1 and three of these four victories were actually recorded away from home.
On the Champions league front though, Marseille have been extremely disappointing as the French club have lost their last 10 ties on the trot at this level and includes losing their last four home ties on the trot or six of their last seven at home if you prefer.
Manchester City Preview – Can Man City extend lead at top of Group C?
A 1-1 draw away from home at West Ham on the weekend in the Premier League extended Manchester City’s unbeaten run in all competitions to five matches and the visitors will be keen to record back-to-back wins in these early stages of the group phase in the Champions League on Tuesday night too.
Last week’s resounding 3-1 home win over Portuguese outfit, Porto, gave Manchester City and manager, Pep Guardiola, the perfect start to this season’s Champions League campaign and the Citizens will be eyeing off another valuable three points at Marseille on Matchday 2.
Overall results in the Champions League have been strong for Manchester City who have suffered just one defeat out of their last 11 ties while on the road, it’s just one defeat from their last nine ties on their travels, winning three of their last four with wins at Shakhtar Donetsk, Dinamo Zagreb and most impressive of all, Real Madrid.
