Competition: Ligue 1

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 10/11 @ 888sport

In a contest that could see a string of chances on Wednesday night, a struggling Marseille will host Lens from behind closed doors.

Starting with the hosts, continuing on what has been a hugely worrying run of form, Marseille are a side desperately seeking a bounce in midweek. In their 18 Ligue 1 matchups so far this season, they have recorded nine wins, five draws and four defeats, scoring 26 and conceding 18 in return. Freefalling down the table and now sat in sixth with a points tally of 36, they currently find themselves sat four points adrift of breaking into the European positions. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a shock 2-1 defeat against Nimes on home soil, Marseille have suffered back-to-back defeats and have won just one of their last seven matchups across all formats. However, it is worth highlighting that Wednesday’s hosts have seen seven of their last eight fixtures finish with both teams finding the net.

As for the visitors, also enduring what has been an extended blip on either side of the festive break, Lens are another Ligue 1 outfit desperate to end their rut. In their 19 top-flight matchups so far this season, they have recorded eight wins, four draws and seven defeats, scoring 29 and conceding 29 in return. Managing to collect a points tally of 28, they open the midweek fixtures sat 10th in the table and hanging onto their spot in the top-half thanks to their goal difference. As for their recent run of results, playing out a 1-1 draw against Nantes last weekend, Lens have collected just a single point from their last three Ligue 1 matchups. With three of their last four top-flight fixtures also seeing both teams find the net, we’re backing a similar outcome on Wednesday night.
