When you look at the top teams in France, Olympique de Marseille are always one of the names at the top of the list. As a team that consistently finishes in European positions, their reach far extends that of most French clubs. This season, they'll look for success in the Coupe de France and respectable finishes in both the UEFA Champions League and the French first division - Ligue 1.

At BetUK, you'll be able to find betting markets and odds both outright and live for all of these tournaments and all Marseille matches across the season. Can Olympique Marseille build on their 3rd place finish last season?

Marseille 2023/24 Betting

The 2022/23 season will be deemed as a successful season when fans look back. However, a defeat on penalties to Annecy in the Coupe de France will have left a sour taste in the mouths of Marseille fans. Those looking for betting tips ahead of the new season, we believe Marseille will finish in the top three of the French Ligue 1 but have poor seasons in regards to knockout competitions. If they did drop down to the Europa League, they might have a good chance of reaching the latter stages of the competition with the additions to their squad. If Renan Lodi, Pierre Emerick Aubameyang and Geoffrey Kondogbia can hit the ground running, it could be a good season for Marseille fans. However, adding to their trophy cabinet will be incredibly difficult.

Betting on Marseille in Ligue 1

When it comes to Ligue 1, we tend to see the domination of Paris-Saint Germain almost every season. An abysmal finish to the campaign saw Marseille lose 4 out of their last 5 games and finish 12 points behind eventual winners PSG, which is still an improvement on most seasons. In theory, Marseille's team has improved and thus we should see them close the gap on Paris-Saint Germain but inconsistencies remain, relegated Ajaccio did the double over them and defeats to Brest and Nice were the difference between Marseille and PSG last season, for those betting on Ligue 1, those inconsistencies will likely remain.

Betting on Marseille in Coupe de France

Unsurprisingly, Marseille have one of the best histories when it comes to the Coupe de France, what is more surprising is that they haven't won the competition since 1989 and have only won it once since 1976! Since their last win, they have reached the final on four occasions, losing to Monaco in 1991, losing to PSG in 2006 and 2016 and suffering a shock defeat to Sochaux in 2007.

If you're looking at the round Marseille are most likely to be eliminated, this is the Quarter-Finals, they have been dumped out of the competition at this stage in four of the last six occasions. They have only gone beyond this stage three times in 27 years, each time they have lost in the final. Betting on Marseille in Europe

Marseille start the season in the UEFA Champions League. However, it wouldn't be a major surprise if they dropped into the Europa League this season. They have only made it beyond the group stage of the UCL three times in their history, winning the competition in 1992/93 with a win over AC Milan and losing to Man United and Bayern Munich in 2011 and 2012.

Marseille's struggles in Europe don't end there. With three group stage exits in the last five attempts. They did make the final in 2017/18 but were easily defeated by Atletico Madrid

Next Marseille Manager Betting

Marcelino was hired by Marseille ahead of the 2023/24 season after Igor Tudor left the club stating tiredness as the reason for his departure. It is the Spaniard's first job outside of Spain and he could be heavily scrutinized against if Marseille under-perform in the early season. Typically, Marseille tend to wait until the end of the season to remove a manager. However, we have seen exceptions made at the club, Andre Villas-Boas and Michel are two recent examples.

If Marcelino was sacked early on, former PSG manager Christophe Galtier and former Wolves manager Julen Lopetegui are two managers who may be seriously considered for the role.

Marseille Transfers Betting

When looking at tips for the next big players that Marseille may sign, their transfer policy under Marcelino has been to sign high-profile players from big clubs. Renan Lodi, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Geoffrey Kondogbia sit as their first three signings, it wouldn't be a major surprise if their next signing was along the same lines. So, if you're looking for transfer betting tips relating to Marseille football club, we recommend looking at the players who can be found as outsiders at top clubs across Europe.
