Tip and bets
In Rome match Marseille looked better than the opponent, they were closer to a victory, but failed to convert their chances into goals. We think that hosts will play aggressively at Velodrome and they will have more chances for a victory.
We don't think that Lazio will be able to pick up three points in an away match against Marseille. In our opinion, this match will go by the same scenario as the first one. We think that hosts are favourites, but we can't rule out a possibility of a draw.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (0) on Marseille
In a Rome match both opponents had opportunities to score and a goalless draw is more of an accident. In the second game teams will probably play aggressively once again in an attempt to outscore the opponent. Visitors need a victory to take the lead over the opponent in the standings, so French team can punish Lazio in a counter-attack. We are expecting a high-scoring game.
Our second bet is on total over 2.5 goals
