Marseille desperately need points on Saturday, May 29 at 9:00 PM in the Ligue 1. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Marseille come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 4L in last 5). Lorient, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Marseille head into this on the back of a defeat, while Lorient arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

History strongly favours Marseille here — they've won 8 of 10 previous meetings against Lorient, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Marseille won 0–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.2 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Marseille a slight edge, but Lorient are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
