Marseille vs Lyon Live Stream & Prediction – BTTS the Best Bet in Ligue 1
Marseille has been on an impressive scoring spree at home, achieving 29 goals in just 11 matches. However, their defensive line has shown vulnerabilities, particularly throughout February. Given their offensive prowess yet defensive fragility, the recommendation is that betting on both teams to score (BTTS) could be the most strategic option for upcoming games.
- Marseille netted 29 goals in 11 home games
- Lyon are the hottest French team in 2026

Lyon scored in every match since early December, and I am confident they will exploit Marseille’s struggling back line. Hosts are also expected to score in Habib Beye’s home debut as new manager, so BTTS is my top pick.

Les Gones Edge H2H

Marseille Under New Leadership
February was quite turbulent for Marseille, Roberto De Zerbi leaving the position of head manager after suffering a humiliating 5-0 loss to PSG.
Under caretaker Jacques Abardonado, they wasted a 2-0 lead against Strasbourg at home, conceding twice inside the last 20 minutes and being forced to settle to a 2-2 draw.
Habib Beye was appointed new head manager in late February, and the Phocaeans were beaten in his debut by Brest 2-0 last weekend. Marseille had 1.68-1.26 expected goals and 68% possession.
Lyon’s Results in 2026 are Stunning
A 2-1 home victory against Go Ahead Eagles in the Europa League in mid-December was a start of Lyon’s incredible 13-game winning streak.
They made a lot of progress in Ligue 1 thanks to their recent victories in February against Lille 1-0, Nantes 1-0 and Nice 2-0, moving up to 3rd place.
This incredible run ended last weekend on their trip to Strasbourg, suffering a 3-1 defeat with Corentin Tolisso netting a consolation goal.
