Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
Nimes
Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-1
Marseille
After recording their fourth consecutive league win against Angers, Nimes suffered a 2-1 loss at Rennes at the weekend. Les Crocodiles, though, have been producing splendid performances in the Ligue 1 in 2020, and they are surely capable of making life difficult for Andre Villas-Boas’ charges. Nimes are determined to avoid relegation to the Ligue 2, and we predict that they are going to adopt an attack-minded approach in Friday’s football match.
Considering that Olympique Marseille experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-1 loss to Nantes, we are tempted to put our money on the underdogs this time out. In their last meeting at Stade des Costieres Nimes defeated Olympique Marseille 3-1, and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. It has to be noted that Nimes defender Anthony Briancon misses the match through suspension.

Highlighted Player (Lucas Deaux):
Born in Reims, France on December 26, 1998 Lucas Deaux started his career at Reims. The right-footed midfielder scored seven goals in 117 appearances in the league for the Stade Auguste Delaune outfit and he moved to Nantes in the 2012 summer transfer window. Deaux quickly established himself as a first-team regular at the club and you should bear in mind that he played no less than 119 league matches for les Canaris from 2012 to 2015.
In 2016 he moved to Belgium, signing a deal with Gent, but he made only five appearances for de Buffalo’s in the Belgian top flight. Lucas Deaux soon returned to France as he signed a three-year-deal with Guingamp on July 1, 2016. His main position is defensive midfield, but he is capable of playing as a centre-back as well if needed.
His preferred foot is right and the 188-cm-tall footballer is very good in the air. Lucas Deaux scored two goals, while providing five assists for his teammates in 38 appearances for Guingamp in the 2016/2017 Ligue 1 campaign.
Highlighted Team (Marseille):
Olympique de Marseille are considered one of the best French football clubs. Les Olympiens won their ninth Ligue 1 title in 2010, but winning of the 1992/1993 Champions League trophy is seen as the club’s biggest success. Marseille defeated Italian giants Milan in the title game, with Basile Boli scoring the winner (1-0) in the Olympiastadion showdown.
It has to be noted, though, that the Stade Velodrome outfit were banned from defending the title in the 1993/1994 season after being involved in a match-fixing scandal. To make things even worse for the fans, the club suffered enforced relegation to the Ligue 2. Olympique de Marseille participated in the Europa League final on two occasions (1998/1999, 2003/2004), but they were beaten by Parma and Valencia respectively in the title games. OM’s home ground Stade Velodrome was opened on June 13, 1997 and the capacity of the stadium is 67.394.
The likes of Franck Ribery, Didier Deschamps, Didier Drogba, Laurent Blanc, Fabien Barthez, Samir Nasri, Fabrizio Ravanelli and Djibril Cisse all played for Marseille in the past.
