Marseille vs PSG Prediction and Betting Tips | 8th February 2023

The Coupe de France is back in action with another round of matches this week as Marseille lock horns with Christophe Galtier's impressive PSG outfit in an important clash at the Stade Velodrome on Wednesday.

Marseille vs PSG Preview

Marseille are currently in second place in the Ligue 1 standings and have stepped up to the plate so far this season. The home side slumped to a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Nice over the weekend and will need to bounce back in this fixture.

PSG, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table at the moment and have been in exceptional form this season. The Parisian giants edged Toulouse to a 2-1 victory in their previous game and will look to take it up a notch this week.

PSG have flattered to deceive in recent weeks and have a point to prove against their arch-rivals. With Neymar and Kylian Mbappe injured, the Parisians have been heavily dependent on Lionel Messi and will need the talismanic Argentinian to weave his magic yet again this week.
