00:00Hi Dailymotion! Olympique de Marseille have a big game tonight against Newcastle.
00:03With only 3 points in 4 Champions League matches, Olympique de Marseille is 25th in the overall standings.
00:08The situation is tense and Roberto Duzarbi's men absolutely must pick up points if they still want to think about qualifying.
00:14But on the statistical models side, optimism is not forthcoming.
00:17Opta's supercomputer analyzes quite a few things like the current form of the teams, etc.
00:21Newcastle are the favorites for tonight's match, but above all, they don't place Olympique de Marseille among the top 24 teams that would qualify for the Champions League.
00:27Indeed, while Marseille still has to face Union Saint-Gilles-Oise, Liverpool and Club Brugge,
00:32According to predictions, OM would only take 4 points from these 3 matches.
00:36As a result, the most likely final estimate for Olympique de Marseille would be 7.44 points.
00:40They would therefore finish 30th in the Champions League and be eliminated.
00:42However, there is still a glimmer of hope.
00:44It is possible this year that fewer points will be needed to qualify for the Champions League.
00:48Indeed, according to Opta's model, the last qualifying place will be at 8.66 points, much less than last year.
00:53And finally, according to Opta, Paris Saint-Germain will comfortably be in the top 8
00:57and AS Monaco will be well placed to play in the playoffs since they would have a little over 10 points.
