RC Lens vs Olympique de Marseille Prediction 6 May 2023

The highlight of the Ligue 1 matchday 3 will be the meeting between Lens and Marseille, the neighbors in the standings.

With 69 points in the asset and a goal difference of 55:25, Lens are holding third place, effectively guaranteeing qualification to the Champions League. In the last five meetings, the Blood and Golds dealt with Rennes (1:0), Strasbourg (2:1), Monaco (3:0) and Toulouse (1:0), and also capitulated to PSG - 1:3.

In a similar period of time, Marseille beat Troyes 3:1, Lyon 2:1 and Auxerre 2:1, and also had a 1:1 tie with Montpellier and 0:0 with Lorient. Against the backdrop of recent successes, the Provencals have risen to second position with 70 points, 61:32 goals scored-missed statistics and only five points behind the leader.

Lens are very strong at home, but Marseille practically do not know the bitterness of defeat away. In such scenarios, we expect a very competitive confrontation with a minimum number of dangerous moments and goals scored.
