Troyes welcome Marseille at Stade de l'Aube, Troyes on Saturday, Oct 10 at 5:00 PM in a Ligue 1 fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.

Troyes come into this fixture in mixed form (0W 1D 0L). Marseille, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (1W 0D 0L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Despite playing at home, Troyes face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Marseille have won 7 of 10 encounters, with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Troyes won 1–3. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.

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