Granville vs Marseille Prediction & Betting tips
In the 2015-2016 season, Granville and Olympique Marseille also met in the Coupe de France, at the time in the quarter-finals. Can fourth-division team Granville take revenge this season on the 1-0 defeat of four years ago?
Granville:
Granville has never been a big team in French football, but occasionally the fourth division team makes the news with remarkable results. The results are not from competition matches, because in the Championnat National 2 the team is a mid-engine that often just manages to reach the left-hand row. This season the team from Normandy is in a decent fifth place halfway through the season, but promotion does not seem feasible this season either, given the backlog of twelve points in the lead. A stunt against Olympique Marseille, on the other hand, cannot be ruled out with priority, because last season Granville already managed to stunt in the Coupe de France with a 2-1 win over Girondins de Bordeaux.
Olympique Marseille:
Olympique Marseille lost for the last time at the end of October and has since been unbeaten for ten games in a row. Eight of those ten games were won in regular time, one was played in a draw and the cup match at the start of this year against four-division team player Trélissac was won after an extension. The current number two of the Ligue 1 is now in a kind of no-man’s-land in the rankings, because the leader Paris Saint-Germain is eight points ahead of the Marziers, while the number three, Stade Rennais, is already five points behind the Marzars, who won 1-0 last weekend in Rennes.
Against Stade Rennais, Kevin Strootman became the man of the game by making the only goal of the match as a substitute in the final stage of the game from the rebound of a free kick by the great Dmitri Payet. The Dutch midfielder seems to have lost the competition in midfield and was allowed to look for another club this winter, but is still under contract in Marseille until mid-2023. There would be dormant interest from his former club AS Roma, which is having a hard time this season in Serie A, and the German Hertha BSC, where he could play together with fellow countrymen Karim Rekik and Javairô Dilrosun.
