How to Watch Marseille vs. Auxerre: Stream Ligue 1 Live, TV Channel

Marseille can temporarily close the gap on Ligue 1 leader Paris Saint-Germain with a win over Auxerre on Friday.

Roberto De Zerbi’s Marseille has an early opportunity to move within three points of Ligue 1 pace-setter Paris Saint-Germain on Friday if the club can beat Auxerre at the Stade Velodrome. Les Olympiens haven’t secured back-to-back wins since September but have a gleaming chance to close within one result of the reigning champion, though promoted Auxerre will be no pushover. And despite their lofty position in the table, De Zerbi’s side are almost two months removed from their most recent home win and have done most of their best work on the road so far this term.

In the opposite fashion, Auxerre has been a Jekyll and Hyde team of epic proportions in its return to France’s top flight, earning just one of its 16 points this campaign on the road.

Christophe Pelissier has led the team on a thrilling run of three straight home wins over Brest, Reims and most recently Rennes, none of whom are to be taken lightly for a top-flight newcomer.

Marseille, meanwhile, held firm to claim its fifth away victory of the campaign on Sunday when ex-Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood supplied the winner at Nantes:

The Englishman has been on fire for the French club since joining in the summer and remains a constant threat in attack, while fellow Premier League alumnus Neal Maupay bagged his second goal for the club.

Marseille had to come from behind to beat Angers when these teams last faced off on France;’s south coast in April 2023, though neither of its scorers from that day – Alexis Sanchez and Cengiz Under – are still at the club.

Les Olympiens have won the last four consecutive encounters between these two teams and are unbeaten against Auxerre since 2009.
