The bet on Nantes 5.5 for the Handicap (Alternate) market is a good choice due to a combination of factors. Firstly, Nantes' recent performance has been better than Marseille's, as shown by their overall records in the last 5 games (2-0-3 for Nantes vs 1-0-4 for Marseille). Secondly, while Marseille has a stronger record at home (3-1-1), their average score at home is just 2.2, compared to Nantes' 1.2 away score. Moreover, Marseille's Expected Goals (xG) at home is 3.04, which is not significantly higher than Nantes' away xG of 1.26.

The bet on Nantes as the match winner is driven by their recent performance and scoring ability. Over their last five games, Nantes has a higher average team score (1.2) compared to Marseille's (0.8). This suggests they have a better goal-scoring rate. Additionally, Nantes' expected goals (xG) score, which measures the quality of their chances, is higher than that of Marseille (1.5 vs 1.22), indicating they've had more high-quality opportunities recently.
