Marseille's recent form, both offensively and defensively, provides them with a significant advantage heading into this encounter. With a strong home record and an in-form attack, they are well-positioned to secure another victory. A key factor to watch will be Marseille's ability to capitalize on Le Havre's defensive vulnerabilities and maintain their impressive defensive record. This match is set to highlight Marseille's strengths as they aim to keep pace at the top of the Ligue 1 standings.
