Marseille and Monaco meet at the Stade Vélodrome in this French Ligue 1 match. The home team are currently in second position with 47 points while the away team are in 9th position with 38 points. Marseille are 15 points behind leaders PSG and there is no realistic chance of catching the runaway leaders. Their best possible finish is second spot as this will see them qualify for the Champions League. This will be no easy task as they have Nice breathing down their necks just a point behind them in third place. Marseille are coming off a 1-1 draw away to Troyes in their last match and have only two wins in their last five league matches. They have won three of their last four matches against Monaco, this is as many as they had won in the previous 16 matches.

Monaco are having a disappointing season languishing in ninth spot and are without a win in their last three matches. They lost 2-1 at home to Reims in their last match but were leading until the 84th minute and conceded two late goals to lose the match. Despite their poor season thus far they are only five points behind the sixth spot which give them entry into the Europa Conference League. Monaco have only once been able to keep Marseille scoreless in their last 32 matches against them. This occurred in the 2008 season when there was a goalless draw between the sides.
