Nice vs Marseille

Winners of their previous Ligue 1 home match against Marseille (1-0), Nice have won two consecutive home games v OM for the first time since October 2013-January 2015 (2) but for the very first time in their history in the top-flight without conceding a goal.

Marseille have failed to win three consecutive matches in all competitions (D1 in the French Cup, D1 in Ligue 1 and then 1 defeat tonight) for the first time under Roberto De Zerbi.

Nice have 33 points or more after 19 matches for the third time in their last four Ligue 1 seasons (33 in 2021-22 and 38 in 2023-24), as many as in their previous 34 top-flight campaigns.

Nice have won just three of their last 15 meetings with Marseille in Ligue 1 (D2 L10). Over the last nine seasons, OM are the team the Aiglons have lost to the most in the top-flight (10) and have their highest rate of defeats (63% - 10/16).

Winners of their last home game against Marseille (1-0 in October 2023), Nice have only strung together two wins against OM at home in Ligue 1 only once in the last 27 years: in October 2013-January 2015 (2).

Nice (30 in 2024-25) and Marseille (37) have reached at least 30 points after 18 matches in a Ligue 1 campaign on three occasions over the last four seasons (the only exceptions being in 2022-23 for OGCN and 2023-24 for OM), with only Paris SG achieving this on each occasion (4).

Marseille have taken 2.4 points per game against teams currently in the top half of the table in Ligue 1 this season (19 in 8 games), second overall behind Paris SG (2.8), while OM are only 10th against teams in the current second half of the table (1.8).

Nice have the same record after eight home games this season as they did in 2023-24 (18 points - W5 D3 L0). OGCN have only done better at this stage once in the last 20 years, and that was in 2016-17 (20).
