Marseille vs. Nice Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Marseille and Nice, taking place on Sunday, 15 September 2024, at Stade Vélodrome in Marseille.
Marseille, Recent Form
Marseille have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 3-1 away win against Toulouse in their previous league match. They came away from that fixture with 49% of the possession and clocked up 0 attempts on goal with 0 on target. By comparison, Toulouse managed 0 attempts on goal, with 0 on target.
It's been a rewarding period in front of goal, with 15 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, boss Roberto De Zerbi will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 7 goals in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 12 games.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Goalscorer Mason Greenwood will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 5 goals in his last 6 league matches for Marseille.
Nice, Recent Form
In their last match Nice enforced their superiority over Angers with a 4-1 away win. In that game they recorded 46 % of the possession, with 13 attempts on goal, 8 on target. Their opponents found the target on 8 of their 14 shots on goal.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 10, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 8 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Nice will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 away games, but with only 2 wins there is some room for improvement.
On an individual basis, Evann Guessand will be looking to cause Marseille some problems having scored 3 goals in Nice's last 6 away games in the league.
