Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
Betting on Lorient in the Draw No Bet market is a strategic choice, considering Marseille's recent performance. Marseille has a poor recent overall record (1-0-4), indicating a lack of consistency. Furthermore, their average score in the last five matches is 0.8, significantly lower than Lorient's 1.6. This suggests Lorient's offensive capabilities are stronger. Additionally, Marseille's expected goals (xG) average (1.22) is lower than Lorient's (1.74), providing further evidence of Lorient's superior attacking potential. Although Marseille's home record is better, their performance against Lorient (4-1-0) suggests a competitive match. Lorient's poor away record could be offset by their higher scoring and xG averages. In a Draw No Bet market, this bet provides a safety net, as the stake is returned if the match ends in a draw, making it a calculated risk.
