Marseille beat Metz 2-1 away in the last round and beat Qarabaq in Europe 3-1 so they welcome Clermont in a good mood. The team led by Argentine Sampaoli is in good shape and considering that some players are returning to the team, I expect a very strong team for the match. Marseille played well against Qarabag, Milik scored two goals so we can expect the Poles in the starting 11. The Velodrome team has won 5 of the last 7 games and it can be said that they only played poorly against Lyon away where they gambled advantage of 1-0 at halftime. Although they have only 5 wins from 12 games at home this season and are playing much better on the side I think Clermont is the right team to improve on that performance. Clermont is coming to the Velodrome in hopes of taking at least one point to help them fight for survival. Clermont has scored a lot more points this season in my opinion than he deserved and I think luck is slowly turning their backs on them. Clermont lost last game against direct rivals for survival, St.Etienne won 2-1 and now Clermont is only 3 points above the relegation zone. Despite the fact Clermont managed to beat Nice and Rennes away, I think they were very lucky in both games and it should be a big surprise if they managed to beat Marseille as well. I expect a tough game here, Clermont will play ultra-defensive but I think in the end Marseille will find a way to outscore them. Asian handicap is a bit risky here, so I will just back the home team to win this.

My prediction;

Outcome: Marseille to win

Goals: under 2.5
