Marseille v Paris FC: European-places aim meets unbeaten start | OneFootball

Marseille host Paris FC in Ligue 1 on Sunday, 6 September 2026 at the Vélodrome, with the hosts eyeing a climb up the table and the visitors defending an unbeaten, two clean-sheet start that has them in the Champions League places.

Marseille have three points from two games after a 4-0 home win over Strasbourg and defeat at Monaco, while Paris FC sit third on four points following a draw at Troyes and a 3-0 win against Nice. Last season's meetings brought a home win for Marseille and a draw in Paris.

Les Olympiens have controlled games so far with 65% possession and 91.16% passing accuracy, scoring four times. Amine Gouiri has two league goals, while Keyliane Abdallah is also on the scoresheet. Angel Gomes has supplied an assist. Paris FC have not conceded in the league, with Kevin Trapp protected by a back line that has produced 57 clearances and eight blocks.

Les Phocéens list Geoffrey Kondogbia, Igor Paixão and Tochukwu Nnadi as injured. Paris FC's injured group includes Pablo Pagis, Luca Koleosho, Nhoa Sangui and Emmanuel Mbemba.

With 27 open-play crosses at 18.52% accuracy, Les Olympiens could look to stretch the flanks again. Paris FC average 52% possession with 89.41% pass completion, and may lean on Ilan Kebbal's supply, while Samir Chergui and Vincent Marchetti have already scored this term.

A home win would move Les Phocéens to six points and could nudge them towards the European places. Victory for Paris FC would take them to seven points and could consolidate their spot in the Champions League positions.
