Real Madrid vs Marseille Prediction & Betting tips
Tuesday night at 10:00 PM, the UEFA Champions League spectacle returns to the Santiago Bernabeu stadium, where Real Madrid, the queen of this competition, will receive the visit of Marseille, one of the most successful teams in France. The two teams have not met for a very long time, more precisely since 2009, when Real Madrid won both games in Group C, UEFA Champions League, 3-0 at home in the first leg and 3-1 away in the second leg. Previously, there were two other confrontations also in this competition, which Real Madrid also won.
Real Madrid:
Real Madrid did not start this season spectacularly, but so far Xabi Alonso, the new coach of Madrid, has done his job very well, managing four victories from four rounds in LaLiga. The clearest victory was the one in the 2nd round with newly promoted Oviedo, away, score 3-0, otherwise the other three victories were all close, 1-0 with Osasuna and 2-1 with Mallorca at home and 2-1 away in the previous round with Real Sociedad. Real Madrid has high hopes in this new UEFA Champions League season and wants to qualify again at least for the final if not even win the trophy after not being able to come close to this goal in the last two seasons. In the next match, Real Madrid will play at home in LaLiga with Levante.
Marseille:
On the other hand, Marseille is coming off a 4-0 home win in Ligue 1 against Lorient, but the team coached by Roberto de Zerbi, who is in his second season on the bench, is a dragon on home soil and a lamb on the road. In the four rounds of Ligue 1, Marseille managed to win both of its home matches, in addition to the victory against Lorient, also managing to defeat the newly promoted Paris FC with 5-2, but on the road they lost the duels with Rennes and Lyon, both with the same score of 1-0. Marseille hopes for a good run in the UEFA Champions League, where it has had good performances in the past. Marseille’s next match will be the derby with PSG at home in Ligue 1.
