After securing the Europa League Semi-Finals with a win over Benfica after penalties, Marseille will face off against Toulouse at Stadium Municipal in Toulouse in their attempt to secure Europe via league finish.
Last season's unexpected Cup winner, Toulouse, had a nice run in the Europa League but was eliminated by Benfica, the same team Marseille managed to beat in the last round. However, in the league, Toulouse are on the pace for another mid-table finish. Currently, they are 11th, ten points away from the danger zone. In fact, Toulouse are only five points away from 7th-place, which could potentially lead to Europe. However, that is pretty unrealistic, considering there are only five rounds left.
Marseille are playing an absolutely terrible season in the domestic competitions, at least by their standards. Their only bright spot is in the Europa League, where they will face Atalanta in the Semi-Finals on May 2nd. In the domestic league, with three losses in a row, they really complicated their lives, dropping to 9th place. Right now, they are four points away from 6th place and two away from 7th place, but with a game played less. So, with a good push in the last few games, they could fairly easily secure Europe via a league finish.
Toulouse vs Marseille pick: Toulouse to (AH 0) win
Toulouse are in good form, winning seven points in the last three games. Furthermore, that good form lasted for a while now, as they lost just twice in the last nine while securing some good wins against Monaco, Lille, Nice, and Rennes.
On the other hand, Marseille lost five in a row before eventually winning against Benfica in the Europa League. Still, they had to play 120 minutes in that match and will surely be tired, and it will be interesting to see whether we will see some rotations.
Also, Marseille have been truly horrible away from home, which is the main reason why they are not higher on the league table. With only ten points in 14 rounds, they are the worst team in that category!
Considering all the above, we think that Toulouse could secure a win over Marseille.

Toulouse team news
The team's captain, Vincent Sierro, served his one-game suspension in the previous match and should be back in the starting lineup. The 28-year-old midfielder is a vital part of the team, scoring seven and assisting five goals in 37 appearances this season.
Toulouse should have no new injuries, but Mikkel Desler and Naatan Skyttä, who missed the previous two games with injuries, should remain sidelined.

Marseille team news
Two very important players, Samuel Gigot and Amine Harit, will serve their one-game suspensions and are unavailable for the Toulouse game.
Additionally, several key players will remain sidelined with their injuries: Quentin Merlin, Ismaila Sarr, Bamo Meite, Jonathan Clauss, and Valentin Rongier.
Around two months ago, the club decided to sack Gennaro Gattuso and appointed Jean-Louis Gasset as the interim manager. In the first six Ligue 1 games, Marseille averaged only 1.5 points per game.
