Marseille vs Liverpool
Marseille have the fourth-best home record in Ligue 1 this season, as Roberto de Zerbi's side has also boasted a 66% win rate on home soil in Europe, with two wins from three matches, scoring six and conceding only two. Les Olympiens have a good goal-to-game ratio domestically, averaging 2.3 goals per game in Ligue 1 and posting an overall team conversion rate of 18%. The home side is heading into this game with five wins in their last seven games in all competitions, and two wins in their last two European games, having already beaten English opposition in Newcastle United (2-1).
Liverpool continues to frustrate under Arne Slot, following their 1-1 draw against Burnley in the Premier League at the weekend. The Reds, on paper, are unbeaten in their last 12 matches; however, the visitors in this fixture have won only 50% of those games. Following the draw against the Clarets, Liverpool are now without a win in their last four league and defensively they have shown the same frailties. In two of their last four league games, Liverpool have led by a goal in the final 20 minutes only to concede late, a regular theme this season.
