Best Tip: Both teams to score

Lorient may feel optimistic ahead of this match and, funnily enough, so might Marseille. The bookmakers can't split them and neither can we – there's no clear winner in this clash. So our tip looks to the both teams to score market, where there's far more reason to be certain. The form statistics, past head-to-head (H2H) records and bookmakers odds below are all pointing towards both sides scoring, and that's the bet we'd recommend you go with.
