Nimes will host Olympique Marseille at the Stade des Costieres on Friday

In a first game from the 27th round of the Ligue 1 Nimes will host Olympique Marseille at the Stade des Costieres on Friday. In today’s sure win prediction today we will take a look at this match.

 

Nimes ressurected their hopes of survival after doing amazingly and winning four consecutive times in the league. In the previous round their run ended and they suffered a loss against Rennes, but their recent performances allowed them to reach the 18th place in the standings which at least guarantees a relegation playoff. Right now Nimes have 5 points advantage in front of the 19th Amiens SC, who are in the relegation zone.

 

Last week Nimes lost for a 13th time this season. They opened the score in the first minute against Rennes at the Roazhon Park, but they also conceded an equalising goal in the 7th minute. In the beginning of the second half Nimes’ Tony Briancon got sent off, which allowed Rennes to dominate until the end and score a winning second goal.

 

Olympique Marseille are living a new life under the decorated manager Andre Villas-Boas. Right now Marseille are second in Ligue 1, being only behind the arguably best team in the country PSG. Most likely they won’t be able to win the title, but what they can do is return to the Champions League. This is going to be an important step for the club.

 

Just like Nimes though, Olympique Marseille also lost their last match. It was the club’s 4th defeat for the season. Villas-Boas’ team hosted Nantes at the Velodrome, but surprisingly conceded a 1-3 loss. Morgan Sanson scored Olympique Marseille’s only goal in the game. Still they remain in a great position to chase a direct return to the group stage of the Champions League.

 

These are our sure win prediction today for the Ligue 1 clash between Nimes and Olympique Marseille on Friday. Good luck!
