Celtic – Marseille

Celtic head into the meeting as league leaders, having amassed 18 points from six straight wins and a dominant 14‑3 goal tally, while Marseille languish in 13th place with just three points after a win and three defeats, their record balanced at six goals for and against. The stark contrast in form makes the Glasgow side heavy favourites, especially with the comfort of playing at home. Marseille will need to overturn a three‑goal deficit in the table and find a way to breach a Celtic defence that has kept a clean sheet in every match so far. The head‑to‑head history offers little hope for the French side, as Celtic’s unbeaten run this season has left them unbeaten against every opponent they have faced.
