Marseille vs Saint-Etienne Preview

Marseille vs Saint-Etienne

Competition – France Ligue 1

Stadium – Stade Vélodrome

Date: 17th September 2020

Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT

Marseille will look to build on their winning start to the season when they host Saint-Etienne for this league game.

Andres Villas-Boas’ side has won both of their league games so far and this game presents them the chance to win three on the bounce.

After beating PSG at the Parc des Princes last time out, they will feel that they can beat any team at the moment and perhaps end their long wait for a league title.

Saint Etienne is also a team in-form which makes this game a tough one to predict.

The visitors have two wins from two games and they have also kept clean sheets in those wins against Lorient at Strasbourg.

However, both wins came at home and this will be a test of their away credentials which will be important to their finishing position this season.

Marseille has dominated this fixture in recent seasons and they won both games last season. O’M has won the last four head-to-heads against Saint Etienne.

Marseille had poor home form before the end of last season and they will want to change that by winning their first home game of the season.
