Marseille will host Brighton at home in the Europa League on Thursday evening, October 5 2023 local time. This is a match between two teams who are unstable, but also have an interesting playing style and a lot of goals.
Marseille is one of the strongest teams in France. They made PSG worry in the title competition last season. But this season, Marseille cannot maintain that strength. They lost their last two matches in a row, including losing 2-3 to Monaco. If you count the 10 official matches since the start of the season, Marseille have only won three times, but also lost three times. Obviously, Marseille is experiencing difficulties.
Brighton actually made more surprises. They were the team that played best in the 2023/24 Premier League before losing 1-6 to Aston Villa. Coach De Zerbi is also praised as one of the best talented young coaches in the world. But the defeat also showed Brighton was unstable. They don’t have enough squad to fight in Europe. This was visible when they started playing in the Europa League group phase with AEK Athens. In the last four matches, Brighton lost three times.
Notably, Brighton also lost two games in the cup this season. Thus, this is a meeting between Marseille who is in crisis and Brighton who is short of players. In that situation, the most interesting thing about this match is the possibility of multiple goals. Marseille’s last three games have had 15 goals, an average of three goals per game.
As for Brighton, eight of their nine games have had at least four goals per game. Brighton is a team that always brings interesting matches. Therefore, the match between these two teams will probably have a lot of goals.
Regarding strength, Marseille will not have Kondogbia, an important defensive midfielder. Brighton also lost Enciso, a key attacking midfielder due to injury. Apart from that, Moder also couldn’t play. This will affect the balance of the two teams.
For tonight’s match, Marseille is considered superior to Brighton. However, Premier League teams can also surprise with their beautiful playing style. Unfortunately, several of their mainstay players were injured.
