THE LOWDOWN

AJACCIO

Ajaccio’s dreadful season is nearly at an end but it is hard to see how they will end on a high. They are now without a win in 12 while they have failed to even find the back of the net in any of their last six.

Their latest defeat came at the hands of Lens who ran out 3-0 winners. It was a comfortable success with Ajaccio failing to get close to them and they have now conceded an alarming 13 goals in their last three outings.

Things are no better on home soil with them failing to score in any of their last six home games while they have won just one of their last 10, scoring in just one of those matches.

MARSEILLE

Marseille’s end of season form has let them down somewhat and has prevented them from having a crack at second spot. They suffered a third loss in their last four matches as they went down to Brest last time out.

The away side took the lead just before the hour mark before Chancel Mbemba levelled things with 15 minutes remaining. However, Marseille failed to hold on as they conceded what turned out to be the decisive goal just six minutes later.

Marseille will be keen to end the season well and are guaranteed to finish third so the pressure is off here. They have lost back-to-back away matches but those are their only two defeats in 13 trips on the road.

THE PREDICTION

Ajaccio are on a wretched run of form and they will be delighted to see the back of this season. They host Marseille in their final contest of the campaign before dropping into Ligue 2 and the away side could compound their misery. The visitors have struggled in their recent matches but should have too much quality for the hosts in this one.

TIP: MARSEILLE TO WIN
