Only 3 matches playing out in the French Ligue 1 this Sunday with Marseille welcoming Lorient regarded as an important one especially for the upper part of the table configuration.

Marseille is holding on to the 4th spot of the table but aims much higher to a Champions League spot at the end of the season, encouraged by their current form as they won all past 4 matches in the competition leaving them joust one point behind Lyon any only 3 from the top spot claimed by Bordeaux and Montpellier witch will go head to head in the same day.

They are the favorites in this match no question about it and the home pitch it’s yet another advantage for them as the good run has certainly influenced the attendance figures and fan loyalty. The home statistic looks solid as the team won 7 and ended 2 in draws in 11 played with a goal ratio showing 20 scored and 10 conceded.

Lorient is on a modest 9th spot of the Ligue 1 table, in terms with the team’s ambitions and objective as they cannot hope for much improvement during this season.

They have won 2 out of the past 5 matches played, somewhat surprisingly away to PSG in an embarasing 3-0 victory for the home side and last week home with Sochaux by the slightest of margins. Their record in front of their crowd is rather decent having won 5 games and ended 1 in a draw with the rest of 7 lost.

My pick:  Marseille to win
