Prediction: Marseille 2-1 Brest
Both sides are unbeaten in the league for a while with consistent victories under their belt.
Marseille aims to create a strength-hold on the 2nd place with good performances.
Given they are at home, we expect Marseille to be favourites with the crowd and energy rallying them on.
But Brest will put up an equally good fight. The hosts have a stronger squad at the moment and should nick this.
Players to watch out for: Gueye, Payet, Faivre and Mounie.
