---------------------------------------- 

Nice: Nice play very unstable this season and therefore it is not surprising that they are currently in 10th place in the table in Ligue 1, wherein they have eight points off the international table spaces. Recently, she lingered for a run of four defeats and a draw in the danger zone, which is why the current placement is quite good and thanks to the last two victories at home against Lorient and away against Bordeaux. Of course, these victories have had a positive effect on self-confidence before the match against the favored Marseilles and so we expect that coach Puel applies an extremely offensive tactics, especially since it is aware that the guests have many problems with the failures of defense. Bodmer, Digard and Traore Pentecote will miss the game due to injury, while defender Palun with his national team are playing at the African Cup.

Olympique Marseille: Visitors from Marseille have on the final day brought a home win against Guingamp. Currently they are on the second place in Ligue 1, with only one point behind the leader Lyon. This away match against Nice, they must take great care, especially as the charges of the coach Bielsa in the last five away games even four defeats and only one draw recorded while they were eliminated in the same period in the French Cup competitions namely away against Rennes and Grenoble. It is crystal clear that this team has a lot of problems with their game in the distance. Thanks to good performances in the first 12 rounds of Marseille is still in the race for the championship of France, and it is they themselves realized that she again having to post good results in the distance. Precisely for this reason Bielsa has announced an aggressive and offensive-oriented play of his team. To some extent he is forced to do so because the veteran defender Fanni is banned for this game, while the reliable defender N`Koulou and winger Ayew are playing at the Africa Cup.
