We said: Marseille 2-1 Lorient

We expect a closely-fought affair at Stade Velodrome on Saturday, but the hosts should have just about enough to squeeze out a sixth successive league win. Lorient possess more than enough firepower to score against Tudor's side, but Marseille are a settled unit at present and will have vociferous support on their side. Read more.
