Although Marseille is suddenly wobbling in terms of form with just the single win from the past five games, the club still has a strong chance of going into the international break at the top of the Ligue 1 standings.

That solitary win was a gritty-as-they-come 1-0 away victory at Auxerre last weekend. The three points moved Marseille into second place in the table, just two points off PSG, but with a superior goal difference of two. The math means that a victory for Marseille at home to Brest on Saturday and anything less than a victory for PSG in a tough game away at Lyon sees Marseille at the top of the tree on Sunday night.

Le Vélodrome: Fortress and Pressure Point

Le Vélodrome is set to play an important role as Marseille have picked up 38 points at home in Ligue 1 in 2025, which is more than any other team. However, a poor Champions League campaign for Marseille does see coach Roberto De Zerbi under pressure.

Just one victory in four and a home defeat against Atalanta during the week saw the fans in the stands less than impressed.

Brest’s Struggles Offer Marseille a Lifeline

Brest might be the perfect opponent for Marseille to regroup after a week of criticism. The visitors are without a win in five in Ligue 1, a run of form that sees the team in the relegation zone.
