Marseille vs Lorient Betting Tip and Prediction. In the first match of the 34th round in French Ligue 1 Marseille host Lorient.
Both teams have the different ambitions – Marseille need points in order to reach the place which leads in the qualifications for the UEFA Champions League, while on the other side Lorient stand in the relegation zone and they desperately need points in order to avoid the relegation.
Marseille is in the terrible form with three consecutive lost matches, but this good be a good chance to get back in the race for Champions League place. Marseille play very good upfront their supporters and that could be the big advantage to take all three points.
Lorient is without win in the last four Ligue 1 matches and they have to start collecting points in order to stay in the best French football league. In the last three matches they even failed to score.
