There are few games as finely poised in the Champions League this week as the decider taking place at the Stade Velodrome, where both Marseille and Tottenham will be playing for survival in the competition and qualification to the knockout rounds.

Marseille need a win at all costs to guarantee themselves a place in the Round of 16, while any other result would see the French club eliminated. They already lost to Spurs in their first encounter back in September, succumbing to two late goals by Richarlison which came after a red card shown to Marseille center-back Chancel Mbemba.

Meanwhile, Spurs can advance with either a win or a draw after dramatically being denied qualification last time out because of a late disallowed goal against Sporting Lisbon.

But Antonio Conte’s side will surely want to close out Group D as winners in order to ensure they’re one of the seeded clubs in Monday’s Round of 16 draw, and only a victory would lock up the top spot. The only problem is Spurs have never won on French soil in this competition, going winless on six occasions.

Marseille boss Igor Tudor, whose side will start the evening in last place in Group D, has pointed out that the French club would have gladly signed up for this scenario when the group stage campaign started. Their knockout round destiny is in their own hands at their raucous home field of the Stade Velodrome.

Midfielders Rodrigo Bentancur and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg join defender Eric Dier in being a booking away from missing the first game of the knockout stage, should Spurs qualify.

Marseille vs Tottenham prediction, betting odds

Tottenham have previously defeated Marseille in London through two goals from the now-absent Richarlison, and they are the favourites to win in France without being odds-on this time.

Marseille spurned a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 at Strasbourg on Saturday, ensuring they have not won for four games running. Prior to that, OM lost at Eintracht Frankfurt on Champions League Matchday 5 and were beaten at home by Lens and away at PSG, conceding the only goal of the game in the latter two matches.

Prediction: Marseille 1, Tottenham 2
