French Ligue 1 side Marseille host Premier League heavyweights Liverpool at Stade Vélodrome, with kick-off set for 15:00 on Wednesday 21 January.

We’re Backing Reds To Claim Victory

We think that Liverpool will have the upper hand against Marseille and we like the price of -106 on the Full-Time Result market. The odds make plenty of appeal and we’re expecting this bet to land.
