AS Monaco vs Marseille Prediction 12.04.2025 | Ligue 1

• Competition: France - Ligue 1
• Date: Saturday, 12th, April 2025
• Kickoff: 16:00 UK / 17.00 CEST
• Venue: Stade Louis II (Monaco)

Saturday’s Ligue 1 action features a high-stakes encounter at Stade Louis II, where Monaco hosts fellow Champions League contender Marseille in round 29.

Instead of tightening their grip on second place, Les Monegasques slipped down to third and allowed fourth-placed Strasbourg to close the gap to just a single point after suffering a heartbreaking 2-1 loss deep into stoppage time against Brest last time out, so an urgent response is now required.

With a big assist from Brest who toppled AS Monaco last week and their own dramatic five-goal triumph over Toulouse at their Velodrome fortress, Olympique Marseille have climbed into second place and preserved a comfortable four-point cushion over a resurgent Strasbourg sitting fourth.

AS Monaco vs Marseille Betting Tips : AS MONACO TO WIN

No question, this will be a fiercely contested showdown, but we’re hoping Monaco can step up when it matters most and reclaim the runner-up spot in the Ligue 1 standings with a strong all-around performance. Monaco will also take heart from their recent dominance at Stade Louis II, where they’ve racked up five consecutive league wins while hammering home an eye-catching 19 goals, meaning their free-flowing frontline could again be the deciding factor in securing the full spoils. Although Marseille holds the league’s second-strongest away tally, their latest outings on enemy turf have raised major red flags, as they’ve been beaten in three straight Ligue 1 visits and shipped a troubling nine goals during that run. The sharp loss of defensive solidity and allowing opponents to easily strike is a worrying sign for Les Olympiens, especially with Monaco firing on all cylinders in front of goal and scoring for fun, and I believe they are well-equipped to take revenge on Marseille for their defeat in the reverse fixture.
