Marseille – Toulouse: match preview
Marseille have claimed only one victory from their last four outings. Their recent run has been far from convincing, prompting a change in the head coach position. The new manager has overseen one defeat and one win so far. Marseille currently sit fourth in the Ligue 1 table. As for the Coupe de France, they entered the competition in the third round. They demolished Bourg-en-Bresse 6:0, then crushed Bayeux 9:0, and in the Round of 16 brushed aside Rennes 3:0. Their cup campaign has been emphatic: three wins and a staggering goal difference of 18:0.
Toulouse also began their Coupe de France journey in the third round. They edged Lyon-Duchère 2:1, followed by another 2:1 victory, and then defeated Amiens 1:0. However, their current form leaves much to be desired, with four matches without a win. Toulouse sit 11th in the Ligue 1 standings, having collected 31 points from 24 rounds. They are a steady mid-table side in France’s top flight. The gap to sixth place is nine points, so a push for European qualification is theoretically possible, but not with the level of performances they are producing at present.
Probable line-ups
- Marseille: Rulli; Weah, Aguerd, Egan-Riley, Medina; Kondogbia, Timber; Greenwood, Nwanieri, Paixao; Gouiri
- Toulouse: Restes; Sidibe, McKenzie, Cresswell; Kamanzi, Vossah, Casseres, Methalie; Sauer, Gboho; Emersonn
Prediction
Marseille have changed their head coach and secured a win in their most recent match, while Toulouse last tasted victory in the cup as well. A fierce contest is expected. Nevertheless, I believe Marseille possess the quality required to progress. I suggest a bet on a home win.
