Lens vs Marseille Prediction & Tips
There are many big matches on this ninth day of Ligue 1 action. It’s hard not to think about the match between RC Lens and Olympique de Marseille, this Saturday at 9:05 p.m. at Stade Bollaert-Delelis. Pierre Sage has made an excellent start at the helm of the Artois club. Although the Sang et Or missed out on European qualification last season, they have made a flying start to the new French championship. Lens are currently fourth in the table, just two points behind the leaders, who happen to be their next opponents.
Since the end of the summer transfer window, OM has been giving its fans something to smile about. It is leaving no stone unturned in Ligue 1. Roberto De Zerbi’s men have just racked up five consecutive league wins to take the lead in the French championship. However, the Olympique club has just suffered a setback in the Champions League. Unhelped by Emerson Palmieri’s sending off, it lost 2-1 to Sporting CP last Wednesday. A reaction is expected from the Marseille players this weekend.
