French Ligue side Marseille play host to struggling Liverpool on Tuesday in a must win Champions League clash. The group A match takes place between 2 sides who are 2^nd and 3^rd in the group table.

Such statistics make for a lively game on the European stage. You can watch Marseille v Liverpool live inside our member’s area on the night.

Liverpool have struggled for portions of the season so far. However, during recent weeks their goalscoring has been prolific. After thrashing Besiktas 8-0 at Anfield they moved on to trounce Bolton 4-0. Chalking up 5 wins from their last 5 matches they have entered the top 4 in the Premier League table. One of the delights for Liverpool is that goals have been flying in from across the field. Regulars such as Fernando Torres have been joined by Babel and Hyppia on the scoresheet as Rafa Benitez’ side run rampant.

In stark contrast Marseille are wallowing on the home front. They sit 16^th in the French Ligue with 18 points from 16 games – hardly a tally worthy of a Champions League side. They have faired a lot better in Europe with some impressive performances including a shock 1-0 win against Liverpool at Anfield. However, with pressure mounting in a European showdown it remains to be seen if the French side can hold their nerve given the overwhelming firepower they face.
