MARSEILLE VS REAL MADRID CHAMPIONS LEAGUE TIPS

Los Merengues are well-priced for an away day victory against Marseille on Champions League matchday 6. Betfair punters are listing Real at a 2.32 price to secure a victory while the French side trade at a 3.2 margin with the draw available at a solid price of around 3.8.
With so much talent packed into one team, its been an interesting season for Madrid, with ups and downs to spare. Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to take the field today, despite being red carded in his league fixture at the weekend. In fact, Ronaldo is the best-priced option to score with a 2.46 listing to grab a goal at any point during the match. Karim Benzema trades at 3.8 with Gonzalo Higuain priced at 3.4.
For Marseille, they have Fernando Morientes (remember him?) available at a price of 4.5. Bruno Cheyrou is available at 5.3 while Hatem Ben Arfa can be backed at a price of 7.2. Brandao is their lowest-priced option at 3.65, just a little bit ahead of his compatriot Mamadou Niang at 3.7.
Punters are favouring a 1-1 draw, which is priced at an even 8.0 while a 2-1 result in Madrid’ favour garners a 10.0 price tag. 2-1 to Marseille is 13.0.
Madrid are 3.75 to keep a clean sheet in this match and 1.34 to concede a goal. Marseille are listed at 4.9 to keep a clean sheet and 1.25 to concede at any point.
The half-time/full-time market has Madrid to win both halves at 4.1 while Draw/Real Madrid is listed at 6.2. Marseille to dominate the match and win both halves is listed at 5.9.
Real Madrid should win this fixture, but Marseille have become increasingly hard to play against, and you can thank their manager Didier Deschamps for that one. I think this one could turn into a draw if Real Madrid don’t assert themselves properly in the opening 45.
