LiontipsMarseille vs. Strasbourg. Prediction and bets on the match of the French championship
Command Analysis
Current form
In the new 2025, Marseille is not slowing down in the national championship. The Provencals won two meetings held in Ligue 1 with a total score of 7:2. The only disappointment was the last game in the French Cup against Lille, where regular time ended in a draw (1:1) and it came down to a series of 11-meter kicks, in which Roberto De Zerbi charges lost.
The hosts of the match are currently in second place in the standings, with 36 points, four more than Lille, who are in second place. Catching up with the leader will not be easy either. The gap to PSG is seven points, and the Parisians have not lost a single match in the current competition.

Harit, Vai, Kondogbia, Carboni, Mumbanya, Blanco are in the infirmary.

- The hosts have conceded in the last three games
Tentative lineup: Rulli - Cornelius, Balerdi, Murillo - Luis Enrique, Rongier, Hojbjerg, Merlin - Greenwood, Rabiot - Maupay.
Current form
The main winter transformation - this is how you can call Strasbourg game over the last month and a half. Let us recall that in November the team played four matches and lost all of them, but Liam Rossignor worked to correct the situation and achieved his goal. At the moment the club is on a series of six unbeaten matches, and they managed to win the last five. In the national championship the team has already climbed to the ninth place in the ranking, and a few days ago they secured a place in the 1/8 of the French Cup, beating Toulouse on penalties. The upcoming opponent is in the same excellent form as Strasbourg, so it will not be easy to fight for points, especially playing away.

1.50Tip and bets
For some reason, many people are focusing on the fact that Marseille lost to Lille in a penalty shootout, and this may not have the best effect on the Provençals' performance. We don't think so. Playing in the French Cup was clearly not a priority, as was not losing second place in the national championship. In the cup match, the hosts did not play as powerfully as they do in Ligue 1, and anyone who watched the match will agree with this opinion. Moreover, the fans will not understand if Marseille makes a mistake for the second time this week, so we are inclined to think that the hosts will take to the field charged with victory and achieve it.
Our prediction is Marseille victory with odds of 1.60
Bet on total
Both clubs are in great form, and we believe that no one will sit back and play to hold on to the score. This means that there is a high probability that both opponents will be able to score, as happened in four of the last five head-to-head encounters.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.68
Bet on corners
Since we expect an attacking and productive game, it is logical to assume that the opponents will be able to make quite a few corner flag passes. We will make another bet on the over total for this indicator.
Bet - total over 9.5 corners. This bet is offered for 1.80
