Yet, despite some good league results, they have not got going in the Champions' League and have 3 losses out of 3 this season; they have been unfortunate, though with two tight losses against top sides in Liverpool and Atletico (both 1-2) and a late pair of goals from PSV to take an even game in Holland (0-2).

Their form has improved in the Eredivisie and they are just one point behind league leaders AZ, but their away form has let them down slightly, with 2 losses in their 4 away games so far.

Marseille can sneak the win here, but at around $1.80, it is not worth the bet; instead, considering that Marseille have been leading at half-time in 5 out of their 7 wins in all competitions this season, while PSV have been losing at half-time in 4 of their 5 losses this season, the HT/FT of 1/1 may have more value at $3.00 from Ladbrokes.
