The Ligue 1 is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Nice lock horns with an impressive Marseille side in an important clash at the Stade Velodrome on Sunday. Nice are currently in eighth place in the Ligue 1 standings and have been fairly impressive this season. The away side edged Lens to an important 1-0 victory last week and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.
Marseille, on the other hand, are in second place in the league table at the moment and have been in impressive form this season. Les Olympiens eased past Nantes with a comfortable 2-0 victory in their previous game and will look to take it up a notch this weekend.

Marseille vs Nice Prediction
Marseille have been in impressive form in recent weeks and will be intent on making the most of their purple patch. The likes of Cengiz Under and Alexis Sanchez have been effective this season and will look to prove their mettle this weekend.
Nice can pack a punch on the day and have pulled off a number of upsets over the past year. Marseille are the better team on paper, however, and should be able to win this game.

Marseille vs Nice Team News
Marseille are blessed with a fully-fit squad at the moment, and the hosts’ only absentee should be Eric Bailly, who will serve the sixth of his seven-game ban for hospitalising Hyeres’ Almike Moussa N’Diaye with a horrendous high tackle in January’s Coupe de France match.
For the time being, Leonardo Balerdi will continue alongside Samuel Gigot and Chancel Mbemba, but the Argentine also has an upcoming ban to serve for yellow card accumulation, which has ruled him out of Wednesday’s cup clash with Paris Saint-Germain in Le Classique.
With no injuries to take into account, Tudor may be tempted to make a couple of alterations with PSG in mind, and Morocco star Ounahi can feel confident of breaking into the first XI after coming off the bench to good effect last time out.
Meanwhile, Nice’s win over Lens came at quite the cost, as Hicham Boudaoui lasted just 21 minutes before coming off with an unspecified injury, although Digard was not overly concerned at the end of the game.
