Marseille were again left frustrated after a 0-0 draw against struggling Guingamp on Sunday extended their winless run at home to eight matches in Ligue 1.

Javier Manquillo tested Guingamp goalkeeper Jonas Lossl with a stinging shot just before half-time while Portuguese defender Rolando rattled the crossbar for the hosts after the break.

Marseille were fortunate to come away with a point though as Mevlut Erding, making his Guingamp debut after joining on loan from Hannover, headed over in the final minute.

Marseille have now drawn their last four league matches and are still without a win at the Stade Velodrome since September, although they extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to 11 matches.

They dropped one place to 11th while Guingamp remain in the bottom three, a point from safety.

Earlier, Nantes won for the first time in eight matches as goals from Johan Audel and Kolbeinn Sigthorsson enabled them to overcome Nolan Roux's opener and beat Saint Etienne 2-1.
