Brighton vs Marseille Prediction 14.12.2023

• Competition: Europa League
• Date: 14.12.2023
• Kickoff: 20:00 UK / 21:00 CET
• Venue: Amex Stadium (Brighton)

Brighton missed the chance to win against Burnley in the previous round of the Premier League to reach the 6th position in the table and find themselves ahead of Newcastle and Man Utd, but so far they have generally had a decent season. In addition, they are close to reaching the 1st place in the group stage of the Europa League and a direct placement in the 1/8 finals, and for that result they will need a victory against Marseille in the last round. In the last few years, Brighton has become an important factor in English and European football, and this season a lot of injuries made it difficult for them to achieve better results.

Marseille has been in excellent form for the last few months. They have lost only once in their last 9 matches in Ligue 1 and Europa League. With 3 consecutive victories in Ligue 1, they climbed to the 6th place in the domestic competition and somewhat regained the trust of the fans. In the next round against Clermont, they have a very good chance to improve that ranking. Marseille reached the Europa League by losing in the Champions League qualifiers against Panathinaikos. That beginning of the season was very sloppy for them, but as the season progresses, a very high-quality foundation of this team can be seen.

Brighton vs Marseille pick: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE

The attacking style of play and a strong home field is what stands out on the Brighton side, which is the favorite in this match, but one gets the impression that Marseille is somewhat unjustifiably underestimated by the bookies. In the last away game against Lorient in Ligue 1, they scored 4 goals. In the first match against Brighton they scored 2. Therefore, it is possible that this will also be a high scoring match with goals on both sides. Both have good strikers capable of taking chances so we take the BTTS bet here
