Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)
Things started to go upside down for Marseille once again these days. They lost their last two games. Maybe those games weren't the most comfortable ones but I would still expect to see better performances than that. 0 goal against PSG and Rennes combined... They couldn't score against PSG home while their opponent was playing with 10 players either. 
These results caused the gap with the fourth position to reach seven points. There are Nice and Lens between as well so Marseille are just making things really difficult for themselves by that. While there are seven weeks left I started to think Marseille won't be making it to the Champions League.
It is difficult indeed for Marseille after their 3 consecutive wins in the last 2 weeks, they actually have to swallow another defeat that is not too desirable considering their current position they have to try to be in the standings better but with the performance they are showing at the moment I think it is clearly a little disturbing for Marseille especially they should currently be able to try more because the Champions League slot for Ligue 1 has increased by 1 at this time.These results caused the gap with the fourth position to reach seven points.

But it is a little difficult with their current conditions where consistency is always a problem for them and their targets seem to be branched because they are still in the Europa League, making them even bother to determine which goal they should take.
Currently, the Europa League for Marseille is quite surprising because they managed to pass through several phases and are currently in the quarter-finals but indeed this is still a risk considering that for the Europa League at this time there are still several other leading clubs such as Liverpool, Milan and Leverkusen who are still one of the favorite clubs.
