Nice vs Marseille prediction, odds & betting tips – 21/11/2025
Domestic football in France returns after the international break with Nice playing host to Marseille at the Allianz Riviera Stadium in Ligue 1 on Friday night. The visitors know that a win would put them, at least temporarily, at the top of the table going into this weekend’s round of fixtures.
Meanwhile, Nice are stranded in mid-table, but are only three points off of the European places. With home advantage on their side as well, Marseille may not find it easy on Friday.
