MAR vs STE Dream11 Match Prediction Ligue 1 Dream 11 prediction 18 September

MAR vs STE Dream11 Prediction: Marseille will be looking to pick up another three points in Ligue 1 this season when they play hosts to St-Etienne. It’s a 100% record from two games so far for Marseille but all the talk from their 0-1 win at PSG last time out was centred around the injury-time brawl that saw five players dismissed. Boss Andre Viilas-Boas will therefore be missing Jordan Amavi and Dario Benedetto through suspension for this match which is the last thing they need against a team who also boast maximum points from their two outings. This will be Saint-Etienne’s first away trip of the season though and they really struggled on the road last term, losing their last seven away games of the curtailed 2019-20 season. Claude Puel will be demanding improvement in that area but Marseille – despite being forced into a couple of changes – are fancied to take all three points here.

MAR vs STE Dream11 Team Prediction

Marseille Team News
Marseille’s victory over PSG was overshadowed slightly as 5 players were incredibly sent off. Two of those were for Marseille were Dario Benedetto and Jordan Amavi will be missing for the hosts. But Marseille look in very good spirits and make no mistake even at this early stage will be thinking they can challenge for the title. Marseille have played two games so far and are in 5th place with two wins.

Injury update, unavailability
Dario Benedetto and Jordan Amavi are suspended for the game after their red cards against PSG, while Alvaro Gonzalez faces a lengthy ban following allegations of racism against Neymar.

MAR Playing 11 & Subs (probable)
Steve Mandanda; Hiroki Sakai, Leonardo Balerdi, Duje Caleta-Car, Yuto Nagatomo; Valentin Rongier, Boubacar Kamara, Papa Gueye; Florian Thauvin, Maxime Lopez, Dimitri Payet

Subs (probable): Bouna Sarr, Valere Germain, Kevin Strootman

St-Etienne Team News
Saint Etienne have been solid with also two wins from two games. Last weekend they beat Strasbourg 2-0 and the club have started really well. Only themselves and Bordeaux are yet to concede a goal so far this season. Saint Etienne have not played away this season, so this trip will be fresh for them. They have two wins so far but have not played away, that is where the consistency will start to count.

Injury update, unavailability
Miguel Trauco and Arnaud Nordin are doubtful for the guests in this tough contest against Marseille.

STE Playing 11 & Subs (probable)
Jessy Moulin; Mathieu Debuchy, Wesley Fofana, Timothee Kolodziejczak, Yvann Macon; Mahdi Camara, Yvan Neyou Noupa; Denis Bouanga, Adil Aouchiche, Charles Abi; Romain Hamouma

Who will win MAR vs STE Today Match Prediction Football

Marseille will be very confident coming into this game. Their fans might be sceptical.

We predict a 2-0 win for the hosts in today match prediction.
