MARSEILLE VS FC PORTO PREDICTION

Marseille currently sit pointless in Group C and must win here to realistically stand any chance of qualifying for the knockout stage. The French side have failed to score in any of their three group games so far and are expected to gamble by playing a highly offensive game here at home, knowing that they have nothing to lose. This may see them leaving big gaps in their defence and vulnerable to the counter attack whilst pushing bodies forward, which Porto will look to take advantage of. Whilst the hosts taking more risks may see them find the net in this match for the first time in the group stage, Porto are still more than capable of picking up at least a point here, if not all three so consider the visitors draw no bet.
