Nice vs Marseille predictions, preview, team news and more

Nice welcomes Marseille to the Stade de l’Aube in Ligue 1 on Wednesday, with the two teams having had similar seasons so far.

Nice are currently third in the championship, one point above their opponents. Christophe Galtier’s team will start the match after a 3-2 victory against Lyon. They hope to take advantage of this momentum during the clash against Marseille.

Marseille have failed in recent times, having won only one of their last five games in all competitions. Jorge Sampaoli’s side won an impressive 0-0 against PSG last time around.

They hope to build on this result with a victory against Nice on Wednesday.

Both teams have a chance to finish second in the table with a win, which should make Wednesday’s game an exciting game.

Nice’s lone victory was a 3-0 demolition of Marseille in March. Goals from Khephren Thuram, Amine Gouiri and Alexis Claude-Maurice ensured victory overnight.
