Brighton and Hove Albion vs Marseille 14.12.2023 Prediction: UEFA Europa League

Match Overview

The Amex Stadium in Brighton will play host to a fascinating game between Brighton and Hove Albion and Marseille in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday. Marseille will feel that they can shock Brighton with their superior defensive lineup, but the home team's attackers will be licking their lips in anticipation at the challenge that will come their way.

Key Highlights 

While Brighton have won just three out of the last five matches that they have played, Marseille have been victorious in four of them. This means that the visiting side will have an upper hand over their opponents when it comes to form. Brighton have kept just one clean sheet in the last five matches that they have played. This does not augur well for them.

Injury Report

Marseille will have to make do without the services of Valentin Rongier and Joaquin Correa among others, Brighton have a long list of injured players in their ranks. This includes the likes of Tariq Lamptey, Pervis Estupinan and Solly March among others.

Prediction

Neither Brighton nor Marseille appear to be the overwhelming favourites to win this game. They will feel that the side that gets on the front foot early on in the game will dictate it for long periods of the game. Brighton, who keep a high line, will have a lot of work to do against the Marseille attackers in this game. We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game.
