A Crystal Palace fan, he is a long-time subscriber to the belief that it's the taking part that counts. A PSG win and both teams to score is our pick here. Marseille have scored in every Ligue 1 game they have contested this term, a feat that not even PSG can match. It is not easy to overcome this modern PSG, whose wealth outstrips that of every other Ligue 1 side, but Marseille are in a good place right now. Jorge Sampaoli departed dramatically in pre-season, forcing the club to turn to Tudor unexpectedly. But the perpetual noise surrounding this club is not about to quieten down. Igor Tudor’s men did lose their first match of the season last weekend, going down 2-1 at home to Ajaccio. First, Mbappe reportedly wants to leave the club as early as January after accusing PSG of breaking promises they made to him before he signed his new contract. Paris Saint-Germain is a club that seems allergic to the quiet life. And Luis Campos is threatening to walk away too: he is said to be unhappy with the role of Antero Henrique, the former sporting director who is still employed by PSG as a consultant. For starters, PSG are on a three-match winless streak in all competitions.

Nevertheless, the ten-man home team could not maintain any concerted pressure and were failing to make inroads into the Marseille defence. Goalkeeper Franco Israel came in for the suspended Antonio Adán, Pedro Porro was not yet deemed fit enough to start, Ricardo Esgaio taking the right wing-back role, and up front Paulinho was benched as Sporting went with the Trincão-Edwards-Pote front line. Barely half and hour gone and Sporting were two goals and one man down. However, the VAR check proved fatal for Sporting as the goal was validated. It was déjà vu for Sporting against Marseille in a forgettable Champions League night for the home supporters at the José Alvalade stadium. With neither side initially able to make headway against two aggressive and well-organised defences, the opening minutes were marked by the loud jeers directed at former Benfica full-back Nuno Tavares.
