Objectively, Tudor-coached Marseille are stronger than Nantes. And so, on this third day of Ligue 1, the home side should find their second win of the season after a fine debut and a draw at Brest that left a bitter taste in the mouth for the way it came. Marseille in fact showed throughout the match that they could take the victory, but failed to do so mainly because of the chances wasted during the challenge. Then, in the second half, after the equaliser had been conceded, a certain nervousness came out that led to several cautions: in this aspect, the team coached by the former Verona coach must improve.
Two points instead for Nantes in this start of the championship: away draw at Angers, home draw certainly much more important against Lille. But this time, the team led by Kombouare will hardly be able to extend the streak of useful results. Marseille, especially at home, is definitely scary, also because it is pushed by a very hot crowd that, last year, also created several problems during the season.
