The game will be broadcast live on Amazon Prime and Ligue 1+ from the Allianz Riviera. Marseille can temporarily move to the top of the table with a win, while Nice, stuck mid-table after three straight defeats, are desperate for a turnaround. For more expert insight, explore Ligue 1 Predictions from XpertStats.

  • Nice have lost three straight matches across all competitions heading into Friday’s clash.
  • Marseille are unbeaten in their last three Ligue 1 games, with no goals conceded this month.
  • Nice average 4.83 corners per game, while Marseille manage 5.83.
  • Both sides have seen under 2.5 goals in three of their last four meetings.

Things haven’t looked too bright for Nice lately. Three losses in a row, and in each of them, they’ve taken the lead only to crumble later. Franck Haise’s side start fast but can’t seem to hold their nerve. Still, back at home, they’ve been solid: unbeaten in five straight Ligue 1 matches at the Allianz Riviera. It’s a strange contrast: poor on the road, powerful at home. Maybe it’s the crowd, maybe it’s confidence, but something changes in Nice when they’re in front of their fans.

Looking at the stats, Nice average 1.67 goals per game and concede just 0.83, a respectable balance despite their recent slump. Over 67% of their matches feature at least two goals, but just a third go beyond 2.5. They love corners too: averaging 12.5 total per match, with an incredible 100% rate of games topping 8.5 corners. So, even if goals are scarce, set-pieces are almost guaranteed.

Marseille, on the other hand, seem to be finding their rhythm again under Roberto De Zerbi. They’re unbeaten in three, with three straight clean sheets, and have been ruthless at home. Away from the Vélodrome, though, it’s been trickier, only six of their 28 league goals came on the road. Still, when they click, they look sharp. Angel Gomes, Mason Greenwood, and Aubameyang have formed a fluid front three that keeps defenders guessing. Can they keep that energy flowing in Nice? That’s the question.

Statistically, OM look more likely to dominate territory. They average 5.83 corners won per game and concede just 4.33, suggesting they’ll keep Nice pinned back. Defensively, both sides concede less than a goal per game, so don’t expect fireworks. It’s a game that could hinge on small details, a single chance, a set-piece, maybe a moment of brilliance. That said, Marseille’s recent form gives them the edge in what should be a tight, tactical battle between two sides with different ambitions but equal hunger. And when it comes to set pieces, Marseille look like they’ll keep pushing for more. That’s why they’re our pick for having more corners tonight.

Nice coach Franck Haise confirmed that captain Dante will miss the Ligue 1 clash against OM as he continues to struggle with persistent knee pain. Although the defender has resumed light collective training, Haise stressed he cannot “put him in danger” after limited sessions over the past months. Nice will also remain without several injured players as the squad works to regain full fitness. Source: L’Équipe

Prediction
Marseille to Have More Corners @1.58
Marseille’s corner numbers tell a clear story. They average 5.83 corners per match while conceding only 4.33, compared to Nice’s 4.83 won and 7.67 conceded. That means OM typically generate more pressure in the attacking third, pushing opponents back. Even when they’re not dominating possession, their full-backs and wingers create plenty of width and force defensive blocks that lead to corners. Nice, meanwhile, are often on the defensive, especially against top sides. Their matches see plenty of corners overall, but many come from defending sustained pressure. At the Allianz Riviera, Marseille’s tactical style, overlapping runs, wide deliveries, and set-piece threats, makes them more likely to win the corner count. Considering Nice’s habit of sitting deep and inviting pressure after scoring first, OM look primed to rack up more corners throughout the 90 minutes.
