Olympique de Marseille welcomes Toulouse this Sunday for the 5th day of Ligue 1 (5:05 p.m.). Here is the expected lineup for OM.
It’s a Marseille team still getting into shape which is getting back into the daily bread of Ligue 1 with the reception of Toulouse this Sunday (kick-off at 5:05 p.m.). After a satisfactory start to the season on an accounting level but disappointing in content, OM will try to gain momentum in the weeks to come. The Téfécé will be a first obstacle to overcome.
“ We have a unique stadium, with a public that is always behind its team, underlined Marcelino. It’s something different from what I’ve seen, what I’ve experienced, in my career. What can I say to bored supporters? I too sometimes get a little bored. I don’t like it and I don’t want to be bored. And neither do they. We are aware, very aware, that we still have to improve, that we cannot repeat a performance like the one against FC Nantes. It’s our idea, our motivation and our state of mind“.
To achieve this, the OM coach should keep his flat 4-4-2 system, but with strong choices in his composition. Vitinha, who scored points, would still have the opportunity to shine on the attacking front alongside Aubameyang. The Veretout-Rongier tandem is also expected in the midfield.
The expected lineup for OM : Lopez – Clauss, Mbemba, Gigot, Lodi – Mughe, Rongier, Veretout, Correa – Aubameyang, Vitinha.
