Marseille host FC Porto at Orange Velodrome Stadium in Marseille, France for their UEFA Champions League Group C game. Scheduled to be held on Wednesday, November 25, the match kicks off in India on Thursday early morning at 1:30 AM IST. Here are some Marseille vs Porto live stream, match details, team news prediction, etc of the upcoming fixture.

Having lost all of their games in the Champions League so far, Marseille sit at the bottom in Group C of the UEFA Champions League. A loss on Wednesday night against FC Porto could end their run in this season’s UEFA Champions League. On the other hand, Porto’s only loss in the Champions League this season came against Premier League giants Manchester City, in the first game of the Champions League 2020-21. After the 1-3 loss to Manchester City, the Portuguese side managed to shrug it off and get back to winning ways in their 2-0 win against Olympiacos.

The teams locked hosts earlier this month on November 4 as Porto hosted the French outfit at Estadio Do Dragao in Portugal.  The hosts dominated the game from the start by opening the scoring within the first 5 minutes of the game. Dimitri Payet missed the chance to equalize as he could not convert his penalty kick during the 10th minute of the game. 

Porto tightened up their defense and did not allow Marseille any chance to get back in the game. A Sergio Oliverira penalty in the 29th minute followed up by a Kuis Diaz goal at the 70th-minute mark sealed the deal for the Portuguese outfit as they cruised to a 3-0 on Matchday 3 of the UEFA Champions League.
