Marseille vs Angers Prediction & Picks - Ligue 1
by Tyler Doty | in Soccer Picks
Matchday 7 of Ligue 1 kicks off this Friday at 2:45 pm EST. Olympique de Marseille and SCO Angers kick off the action at the Stade Vélodrome. A reaction is expected from the Phocéens. After an excellent start to the season, they have just lost 1-0 to RC Strasbourg. They will be looking to kick-start a positive spiral just before the international break, to consolidate their 3rd place in Ligue 1.
The Marseille team will be the clear favorites in this encounter. SCO Angers were promoted at the start of the season. They are far from shining at the start of the season. They are the only team still without a win after the first 6 matches. The Angevin club is therefore in last place in the French championship. Alexandre Dujeux's men will need to pull out all the stops if they are to beat the odds on La Canebière.

Marseille - Angers: Form Analysis
OM is one of the attractions at the start of the Ligue 1 season. The Phocaean club has changed many things over the summer. In particular, Roberto De Zerbi took over the reins at Marseille. He quickly won unanimous approval, taking 13 points from his first 5 matches. However, he has just suffered his first defeat. Last weekend, OM fell to RC Strasbourg (1-0). It was a match in which the Phocaean club were seriously outplayed. There's nothing to worry about, however, as OM remain in 3rd place in Ligue 1.
OM must pick themselves up after their first defeat of the season, at Strasbourg (1-0).
SCO Angers, for their part, are in dire straits at the start of the season. After finishing 2nd in Ligue 2 last season, they have managed to return to the elite of French soccer. And for the moment, they are failing to shine. Alexandre Dujeux's men have taken just 2 points from 6 games. In particular, they have just lost to Stade de Reims (1-3). In their last 3 defeats, SCO Angers have always lost by a margin of at least 2 goals. Ligue 1's red lantern will therefore not be arriving in great shape for this complicated trip.

Marseille & Angers Squad Analysis
There are still a few absentees for OM. They will be without Ruben Blanco, Bamo Meïté, Quentin Merlin, Bilal Nadir and Faris Moumbagna. Valentin Rongier and Ismaël Koné remain doubtful. Roberto De Zerbi will, however, welcome Leonardo Balerdi back from suspension. Strasbourg's forward line failed to shine. Amine Harit, Luis Henrique and Mason Greenwood will be keeping a close eye on this latest Ligue 1 matchday.
OM defender Leonardo Balerdi will be back from suspension.
As for SCO Angers, Jacques Ekomié, Justin-Noël Kalumba and Sidiki Cherif will be unavailable. Zinedine Ferhat unlocked his scoring potential with SCO Angers this season.

Our Marseille vs Angers Prediction
OM have just suffered their first defeat of the season, against RC Strasbourg (1-0). The Phocaean club is expecting to raise its game again this Friday. And they should have no trouble doing so when they take on newly-promoted Angevin. SCO Angers have been struggling since their return to France's top flight. They have so far picked up just 2 points. Alexandre Dujeux's men will be hard-pressed to reassure themselves at home.
Our Marseille vs SCO Angers prediction: Marseille cover -1.5 spread.
