Marseille coach Gennaro Gattuso has concocted a surprise eleven for the opposition against Nice this Saturday in Ligue 1.
Olympique de Marseille has a perilous trip to negotiate this Saturday. The Marseille team visits its neighbor Nice, with the aim of confirming its renewed form against Le Havre two weeks ago.
A four-headed OM attack
Against a team still undefeated this season, OM will have a lot to do. But that did not prevent his coach, Gennaro Gattuso, from fielding a very offensive team. There will be four attackers in the starting XI at kick-off.
The Italian technician immediately launched all his cartridges into the attack. The team will be arranged in 4-2-3-1. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will occupy the point and he will be able to count on the support of Iliman Ndiaye and Ismaila Sarr as wingers as well as that of Amine Harit as central midfielder. It promises.
To ensure the link between defense and attack to contain the Riviera’s attacks, we placed our trust in the pair Valentin Rongier and Jordan Veretout. Geoffrey Kondogbia will start the game on the bench.
In defense, Marcelino’s successor opted for stability. Thus, the Balerdi – Mbemba axis is renewed, while Jonathan Clauss and Renan Lodi keep their places in the corridors. The goals are obviously kept by Pau Lopez.
OM’s starting lineup against Nice
Paul Lopez; Clauss, Balerdi, Mbemba, Renan Lodi; Veretout, Rongier – Ndiaye, Harit, Sarr; Aubameyang.
