Accurate football score predictions today
Olympique Marseille hosts Lille at the Orange Velodrome in an incredibly interesting game from the 1/16-finals of the Coupe de France. Two of the best teams in the country are facing each other in such an early stage, but sometimes it happens. Let’s preview it in our Accurate football score predictions today.
Olympique Marseille love life under Roberto De Zerbi. OM are second in the Ligue 1 standings, only behind the champion PSG. Under De Zerbi, Marseille won 11 of their 17 games in the league. It means that qualifying for the Champions League shouldn’t be a problem at this point.
In the previous round of the Coupe de France Marseille faced another elite team – Saint-Etienne, achieving a stunning 4-0 win away from home. Looking at OM’s current shape, De Zerbi’s team is unbeaten since November – that’s when they lost against Auxerre in the Ligue 1.
Mason Greenwood is the player to watch in Olympique Marseille’s team. The former Manchester United striker has scored 12 goals in 18 games in all competitions this season.
Lille are unbeaten in all competitions since the middle of September when they lost against Sporting in the Champions League. Just like Marseille, Bruno Genesio’s team deserves respect for the way it performs this season. Lille are 5th in the Ligue 1, but progressing in the Coupe de France is also important for them. This competition is a chance for them to finish the season with a trophy.
Just like Mason Greenwood, Jonathan David is the player to watch in Lille’s squad. The Canadian striker is one of the best goalscorers in the French league at the moment. Meanwhile the two veterans Remy Cabella and Benjamin Andre are important in midfield, alongside the English international Angel Gomes.
That’s the Accurate football score predictions today for the Coupe de France 1/16-finals game between Olympique Marseille and Lille. It’s going to be a great match!
