Despite three defeats in their last five games, Marseille, who won at home against Montpellier last week, are second in the table, level on points with the other teams. They could find themselves out of the running before their match, but on Sunday evening, after their home game against Brest, De Zerbi’s men could be sure, for at least another week, of being in the Champions League zone. Yes, that’s right.
Against a Brest side that is comfortable in the standings and, thanks to four positive results in their last five games, has pulled itself out of the relegation battle, the hosts can certainly take advantage of their motivation and technical quality, which is decidedly on another level, to win the game and remain behind PSG. There is also another factor to consider when looking at the numbers: Brest, despite having, as mentioned, a fairly comfortable position in the standings, has conceded 49 goals this season and has one of the worst defenses in the league. And since Marseille are currently finding the right moves with ease up front, we expect another big win for the home side.
