Marseille vs Atalanta Predictions
Marseille’s home strength could be decisive
Marseille approach this fixture with real momentum at the Vélodrome. They’ve beaten both Paris Saint-Germain and Ajax on home soil this season and have taken six wins from their last seven European home matches. That streak highlights a side full of confidence and attacking intent — 17 goals scored in their last five home outings underlines just how fluent they’ve become going forward.
Roberto De Zerbi’s men also showed resilience last weekend, edging Auxerre 1-0 despite being reduced to ten men for more than half the match. That grit, combined with their recent scoring rhythm, suggests they’re well equipped to handle Atalanta’s pressure spells and turn momentum in their favour. With players like Igor Paixão and Mason Greenwood in form — Paixão alone has three goals in two Champions League starts — Marseille look well balanced and confident on their own turf.
Tip: Marseille to Win ( at N/A)
Atalanta’s goal drought raises concerns
Atalanta, by contrast, travel to Provence in worrying form. They’re winless in six matches across all competitions, drawing five and losing once — and notably, they’ve failed to score in half of those games. Their recent 1-0 defeat to Udinese, in which they didn’t register a single shot on target, summed up their current attacking struggles.
Since their 3-0 win over Club Brugge, Ivan Juric’s side have been short on precision in the final third, managing just four goals in six matches. Draws against Slavia Prague and Lecce showed flashes of control but little end product, while a 4-0 loss to PSG exposed gaps in their defensive transitions. That lack of sharpness makes a tough away fixture at Marseille an even bigger challenge.
Atalanta still possess European pedigree — they beat Marseille two years ago en route to their Europa League triumph — but form and momentum are not on their side. Unless their forwards rediscover cutting edge, another narrow defeat looks likely.
Tip: Marseille 2-1 ( at N/A)
