Marseille Aims for Dominance Against Angers
17 Jan
Summary
- Marseille holds a significant 10-point lead over Angers in Ligue 1.
- Angers has struggled recently, with a winless streak and penalty shootout losses.
- Marseille recently secured a dominant 9-0 victory in the Coupe de France.
Angers will host Marseille at Stade Raymond Kopa in Ligue 1 on Saturday, with the visitors currently occupying third place and boasting a substantial 10-point advantage over their hosts. Angers has experienced a challenging start to the year, marked by a league defeat to Le Havre and a penalty shootout loss in the Coupe de France.
In contrast, Marseille is seeking to build momentum following a significant 9-0 triumph over Bayeux in the Coupe de France earlier this week. This victory followed an earlier league defeat to Nantes and a penalty shootout loss in the Trophée des Champions against PSG.
Despite Angers' recent home form showing three wins in their last four Ligue 1 matches, Marseille holds a strong historical record against them, particularly in away fixtures, where they have secured clean sheets in four of their last five encounters. This suggests Marseille is favored to secure a comfortable victory.
