Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Angel Gomes 2+ shots4/5 (Coral)Angel Gomes has managed two or more shots in four of his six Ligue 1 appearances this season, ten shots in total, and he has scored once. Marseille bounced back from their 4-1 defeat at Besiktas on matchday one with a 2-0 win at Troyes at the weekend, and Gomes is central to how they create chances. Olympiakos won their opener 2-1 against Jagiellonia, but Marseille should have plenty of the ball at the Velodrome. Coral have Gomes at 4/5 for two or more shots.
Marseille and both teams to score3/1 (bet365)Marseille were awful defensively in their 4-1 loss at Besiktas, but they remain strong at home and are favourites to bounce back against Olympiakos. The Greeks won their opener and carry enough of a threat to find the net at the Velodrome, which points to a home win in which both sides score. Marseille’s firepower should see them edge an open game, but their defensive frailties mean a clean sheet is unlikely. At 3/1, Marseille and both teams to score captures the likeliest shape of a lively night on the south coast.

How Marseille go into the game

Marseille were blown away 4-1 at Besiktas on matchday one, a heavy defeat that leaves them 33rd.

Their defensive frailties were badly exposed, and they must respond quickly in front of their own fans.

How Olympiakos go into the game

Olympiakos opened with a 2-1 home win over Jagiellonia, a result that has them 12th in the standings.

The Greeks arrive with confidence and enough attacking threat to test a shaky Marseille rearguard.
