Marseille
WLWLLL ๐
Marseille will be looking for an improved result here following a 3-1 Ligue 1 losing effort in their last game against Reims.
In that game, Marseille managed 80% possession and 20 attempts on goal with 8 of them on target. The scorer for Marseille was Valentin Rongier (78'). For their opponents, Reims got 7 shots at goal with 5 of them on target. Keito Nakamura (29'), Mamadou Diakhon (51') and Valentin Atangana Edoa (68') scored for Reims.
Itโs been seldom in recent games where Marseille have shown defensive steel. In fact, Marseille have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, giving up 11 goals during that time.
Ahead of this meeting, Marseille haven't been beaten in the league by Toulouse in their last 21 matches. A very long unbeaten run against them.
Toulouse
LWWDLL
Following on from suffering a loss in their previous game against Brest in Ligue 1 action, Toulouse and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.
In that match, Toulouse managed 53% possession and 17 attempts at goal with 4 of them on target. For Toulouse, the scorers were Vincent Sierro (65') and Joshua King (78'). For their opponents, Brest got 10 shots at goal with 5 of them on target. Justin Bourgault (22'), Mathias Pereira Lage (26'), Kamory Doumbia (62') and Mahdi Camara (90') scored for Brest.
The stats donโt lie, and Toulouse have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, letting opponents get 9 goals in all. Defensively, Toulouse can certainly do much better. With no two games being the same, we must now wait to see whether that trend will persist in this next game.
Ahead of this clash, Toulouse haven't beaten Marseille when they have played them away from home in the previous 10 league matches. A very poor run of away results.
