Olympique Marseille form and stats

Last season, Olympique Marseille's league statistics were 16 wins, 12 draws and 10 losses, resulting in a 5th position in the Ligue 1. Over these 38 matches they scored 54 goals and conceded 47. Playing at home last season Olympique Marseille managed 10-5-4 (win-draw-lost) with 32 goals and 23 conceded.

Happy days for Olympique in their previous game, a Ligue 1 match away at Montpellier (placed 17th) that ended with a 3-2 victory. Attacking player Dimitri Payet bested all teammates in that game and got a match rating of 8.85 out of 10. Payet scored two goals, hit two key passes, dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 34 successful passes (of 40 total). An impressive turnaround for Olympique in the match against Montpellier as a 0-2 deficit was completely turned around to a 3-2 win. Dimitri Payet scored the final goal.

1-1 away at Metz before that.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Olympique Marseille's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played one game, won one match, drawn zero and lost zero.

Bordeaux form and stats

Let's have a look at how Bordeaux performed last season in the Ligue 1: They landed a 12th position in the league table after playing out 13 victories, 6 draws and 19 defeats. In total they scored 42 and conceded 56 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 6 - drew 2 and lost 11 with 23/35 goals scored/conceded.

Home advantage was not enough for Bordeaux in their previous game, as they lost their Ligue 1-match, hosting Clermont, 0-2. Goalkeeper Benoît Costil got the top player rating of the team with 8.03/10. Costil stopped the opponent with eight saves. Bordeaux goalkeeper Benoît Costil had a great day against Clermont, but despite making eight saves the loss could not be avoided.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Reims at their stadium, the result 2-1.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Bordeaux playing away, we found two games. Results were zero away wins, one draw and one home win.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: Olympique won five, Bordeaux won one and four draws. three games with over 2,5 goals, seven matches with two goals or less.
