Tip and bets
It is a match between two best teams of Ligue 1. PSG were eliminated from the Champions League, so Parisians now have only one objective now - to get the title as soon as possible. Marseille earned a spot in the semi-final of the Conference League and still have a slim chance to fight for the title of Ligue 1. We think that hosts will be able to crush the opponent.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1,5) on PSG
We think that southerners have less energy for this match after a Conference League outing, plus PSG is an extremely difficult opponent for any team, not only in France. We are expecting plenty of goal opportunities, some of which might be converted.
Our second bet is on total over 3 goals
