Marseille will look to get back on the winning trail in Ligue 1 after a tricky run of results when they face Reims, the club currently on the longest winless run in Europe's top-five leagues, on Saturday evening.
Defeat in Le Classique before the international break has not only put rivals Paris Saint-Germain on the brink of confirming the title, it also moved Roberto De Zerbi's back down into the pack of sides battling for Champions League qualification.
We say: Reims 0-2 Marseille
Facing opponents that have gone 15 games without a win, and who have taken just six points in that time, means Marseille will be hugely confident of ending their recent poor run of form to consolidate their position in second.
With relegation fears growing week-by-week, these are not the opponents Reims would have liked to face next, even if OM are slightly out of form, and the hosts are set to equal their club-record winless streak this weekend.

Paris Saint-Germain can wrap the Ligue 1 title up this weekend if they win against Saint-Etienne at the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard on Saturday, and other results go their way.
Luis Enrique's men remain in the hunt for an unprecedented quadruple, and they should have a second trophy of the season secured before facing Aston Villa in the Champions League quarter-final in just over a week.
We say: Saint-Etienne 0-4 Paris Saint-Germain
Even with some rotation, this should be a stroll for the league leaders, who have swept aside all who have come before them in 2025, and they will be keeping an eye on other results to see whether they are crowned champions this weekend.
Saint-Etienne will put up a fight, but manager Horneland may already be looking ahead to next week's clash with Lens, which will offer a much greater chance of some much-needed points.

Monaco and Nice lock horns at the Stade Louis II on Saturday night in a crunch encounter in the race for Champions League qualification in Ligue 1.
The two start the weekend level on points inside the top four, but under increasing pressure from clubs below them in excellent form.
We say: Monaco 1-1 Nice
Monaco are in good form at home, while Nice have been strong away, and were victorious on their last two visits here, making this devilishly difficult to call.
Even the league table can barely separate the two, who both start the weekend on 49 points, and it will be no surprise if the spoils are shared here.
