As the early season favourites, Marseille hope to justify their title credentials by making easy work of Nice in a round four fixture this coming Sunday in the Ligue 1. The last time these two sides facing off here came up against each other, Marseille came away with a 2-1 win. Rest assured they have a similar outcome in mind at Allianz Riviera.

While Nice find themselves as number 16 in the table with two points after three rounds, Marseille have fought their way to seven points. This puts them up as number three in the table.

It has been a lousy opening to the Ligue 1 campaign for Nice. Nevertheless, they will be hopeful of three points against Marseille on Sunday.

Nice only average a modest 1.4 goals per game in their last ten matches in this tournament, in which they scored 14 goals. They also conceded 12 for an average of 1.2 per game. They kept their opponents from scoring two times.

When it comes to goal-scoring Marseille are not the most prolific side. They scored a sustainable 19 times in their previous ten matches, making it 1.9 goals per game. They conceded 12 goals for an average of 1.2 a game, achieving a clean sheet in three of these matches.

Nice vs Marseille Prediction

In their last three games, Nice lost 1-0 against Maccabi Tel Aviv, got defeated 1-0 by Clermont Foot before winning 1-0 against Maccabi Tel Aviv. Nice won three of their previous six matches at Allianz Riviera in the Ligue 1. They drew two and suffered one defeats, scoring ten goals to eight against.

Nice have their target set on sneaking inside the top six of the Ligue 1 this season, and they have the qualities to at least a finish inside the top third.

Marseille are unbeaten in their last three matches, first beating Reims by 4-1. This was followed by a 1-1 with Brest and a 2-1 win against Nantes. Marseille won three of a possible six away matches in the Ligue 1, as well as playing one draw and suffering two defeats. They scored ten while also conceding seven times.

Head-to-head encounters tend to bring out the best in both sides, and we fully expect the trend to continue, when Nice renew Marseille their acquaintance.
