Match preview

Marseille welcome Paris FC to the Stade Velodrome for matchday three of the Ligue 1 campaign, looking to bounce back from a 2-0 away defeat against Monaco.

Paris FC have enjoyed an impressive start to the season, collecting four points from their opening two matches without conceding a single goal. After grinding out a goalless draw away at Troyes, they secured a resounding 3-0 home win against Nice, placing them in third position in the early standings.

Previous meetings between these two sides have produced plenty of excitement, with Marseille securing a 5-2 win in their last home encounter against Paris FC followed by a 2-2 draw on the road.
