Marseille desperately need points on Saturday, Feb 27 at 5:00 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). Rennes, meanwhile, arrive in red-hot form (4W from last 5) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Marseille head into this on the back of a defeat, while Rennes arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

History strongly favours Marseille here — they've won 6 of 10 previous meetings against Rennes, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Marseille won 0–1. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.0 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: Rennes's quality should tell even on the road. Marseille will push, but the visitors have too much class. Rennes to win.
