OM hosts AEK Athens this Thursday evening as part of the 3rd round of the Europa League.

For the occasion, Gennaro Gattuso lines up an unprecedented three-man midfielder, with Kondogbia starting alongside Veretout and Rongier.

In attack, Vitinha is aligned up front, preferred to Aubameyang and framed by Harit and Ndiaye. Clauss, an uncertain time, is indeed part of the defense.

The Marseille eleven: Blanco – Clauss, Mbemba, Balerdi, Lodi – Rongier, Kondogbia, Veretout – Harit, Vitinha, Ndiaye.
