Marseille, coming off a setback against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League, faces the challenge of rebounding. However, overcoming the co-leader of Ligue 1, a team undefeated in all competitions and boasting three consecutive victories over its rival last year, poses a formidable task.
Despite the odds, many predictions favor the capital club. Wahbi Khazri, the Tunisian international and Bastia striker, expressed his views on the Clasico following his club’s victory against Lorient (4-1). Khazri believes that PSG is the best team in the championship, showcasing their prowess in the Champions League and even suggesting they have the potential to win the prestigious tournament. He stated to RMC, “I think Paris is the best team in the championship. They proved it this week in the Champions League, where they were very, very good. They even showed that they were capable of winning the Champions League.” Khazri predicts a victory for Paris on Sunday, acknowledging the competitiveness of OM-PSG matches and anticipating a determined performance from Marseille in front of their home crowd.
