Marseille vs Newcastle Predictions: 25.11.2025 - Champions League Betting Tips

Marseille vs Newcastle

Marseille will be looking to get back on track in the Champions League when Newcastle head to the south of France on Tuesday evening. The hosts have just three points from a possible 12, while Newcastle have lost their last three away matches.

Who's going to come out on top? Our football tipster Nathan Joyes has analysed the Champions League betting odds and provides his best bet for the match.

Marseille must win

Marseille head into this key Champions League tie on the back of two convincing Ligue 1 victories. A 3-0 win over Brest was followed up with a 5-1 victory over Nice away from home at the weekend.

At home, Marseille have been excellent. Across all competitions, the French outfit have won six of their eight matches, only losing 1-0 to Atalanta in the Champions League.

They may have lost both of their away matches in this competition - which is why they are languishing in 25th place - but they did hammer Ajax 4-0 at home prior.

With goals clearly not an issue, Marseille will be keen to make the most of their home advantage and continue their winning form.

Newcastle arrive in good mood

Newcastle returned from the international break with an impressive 2-1 win against Man City. A brace from Harvey Barnes in the second half sunk the title contenders to their fourth league defeat of the campaign.

In the Champions League, Newcastle have arguably played their best football, winning three of their four matches. Having only lost to Barcelona, Eddie Howe's side are firmly on track to reach the knockout stage.

Newcastle's sole trip on the road in this competition saw them hammer Union SG 4-0 where once against Harvey Barnes was on the scoresheet alongside Anthony Gordon and Nick Woltemade.

Away form hasn't been great at present, losing their last three, but perhaps the result over Man City will be the confidence boost required on their travels.

Marseille vs Newcastle H2H

These two sides have only met twice but that came all the way back in 2004 in the UEFA Cup semi-finals. Newcastle were held at home 0-0 before the French took full advantage at home to come out on top 2-0.

Our Marseille vs Newcastle betting tip

Although Marseille have lost three of their four Champions League matches, their overall home form can't be dismissed lightly. Newcastle won't find it easy on the French south coast.

Goals catches the eye

Marseille (9/5 with Betfred) have perhaps been slightly overlooked by the bookmakers due to their overall form in this competition - dismissing what they have achieved at the Velodrome.

With six wins, one draw and one defeat this campaign, it's important to point out that six of those matches have produced over 2.5 match goals. And six of those have seen the hosts score at least two. Marseille also head into this contest in good form.

But so do Newcastle (7/5 with Betano) after their massive win against Man City. Yet that has only lifted them to 14th in the Premier League, and head to France having lost three away games on the bounce.

All three have safely produced over 2.5 match goals, and so with two good attacks on display, the current goal line looks rather generous. There's plenty on the line for the hosts, who will look to take the game to Newcastle - and that could open up the match.

TIP: Over 2.5 goals at 4/5 with BetMGM.
