The visiting Olympique Marseille side should be favourites in this visit to Nantes, as the away team holds a 15 point advantage from their 24 league games this season.
- Nantes have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
The visiting Olympique Marseille played their last game only three days ago, a Ligue 1 match.
These teams have little in common geographically as Olympique Marseille have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Nantes form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Ligue 1 this season. Nantes have only managed 2 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses from their games here at Stade de la Beaujoire - Louis Fonteneau. With nine home Ligue 1 games in a row without a win, the Nantes fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Brest game long ago, can be stopped today.
A strong away win for Nantes against Angers SCO the last match, as Moses Simon, Abdoul Kader Bamba and Imrân Louza were on target. Before that game, the home loss against Lens with the scoreline 2-4.
Nantes are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 12 goals in 12 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Nantes defense is not exactly impregnable. 19 goals conceded from 12 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Olympique Marseille form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Ligue 1 travels is 5 wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats. Olympique Marseille has drawn their two previous away games.
Álvaro González and Saîf-Eddine Khaoui (2) scored in Olympique's previous match, the home game against Nice that ended 3-2. Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Bordeaux that ended 0-0.
Olympique have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 12 league away games 14 goals have been scored. As opposed to that, Olympique have seen the ball go into their own net 12 times on the road.
