Olympique Marseille vs Saint-Etienne Prediction and Betting Tips | February 15th 2025

The action continues in round 22 of French Ligue 1 as Olympique Marseille and Saint-Etienne square off at the Orange Vélodrome on Saturday. Eirik Horneland’s Saint-Etienne will head into the weekend looking to get one over the hosts, having lost their last five meetings since July 2021.

Adrien Rabiot and Neal Maupay were both on target in the second half to fire Olympique Marseille to a 2-0 victory over Angers at the Stade Raymond Kopa last Sunday.

Before that, Roberto De Zerbi’s side snapped their run of three consecutive games without a win on February 2, when they narrowly edged out Olympique Lyon 3-2 on home turf.

Olympique Marseille have picked up 43 points from their 21 Ligue 1 matches so far to sit second in the standings, 10 points behind league leaders Paris Saint-Germain.

Meanwhile, Saint-Etienne continue to struggle for results in the danger zone as they suffered a 2-0 defeat against Stade Rennais at the Geoffroy Guichard Stadium last Saturday.

Horneland’s men have now failed to taste victory in five straight games, claiming two points from a possible 15, and have managed just one win in their last 10 outings across all competitions since late November.

With 18 points from 21 matches, Saint-Etienne are currently 16th in the Ligue 1 table, three points behind 15th-placed Nantes just above the relegation playoff spot.
