Marseille have scored at least twice in six of their last eight league away games
Paris Saint-Germain have won eight of their last nine home matches against Marseille
PSG have kept just two clean sheets in their last 11 home league games
Parisians may struggle again to hold firm
Paris Saint-Germain have a seemingly unassailable 16-point lead in Ligue 1 this season and could soon be focusing on their Champions League campaign, but before that they should come out on top against their nearest challenges Marseille at the Parc des Princes.
Luis Enrique’s side celebrated a shootout success over Liverpool in Europe’s top competition on Tuesday and should be expected to come out on top of this one, but punters should still expect the visitors to put up a strong challenge in the latest installment of Le Classique.
Marseille have shown their teeth on the road
Marseille remain the second best team in France, but they have done enough recently on the road to suggest they can give a good account in the capital as they have won six of their last eight away league games, scoring at least twice in each of those victories.
PSG are unbeaten in the league on their own patch, but they have conceded in nine of their 11 home Ligue 1 games since a 6-0 thumping of Montpellier in their opener, so while they should come out on top, both teams look likely to net with correct-score betting enthusiasts pointed towards a 3-1 success for Enrique’s boys.
