Attention, Lyon, Metz, Nantes or Saint Etienne have imposed themselves in the pink city, so Marseille can dream of a performance.
The Marseillais have not lost since the reverse in the classico, against PSG (1-5), as the Marseille have two wins in front of SCO Angers (3-0) and Lorient (4-1) and two draws , In Lille (0-0) and against Dijon (1-1).
