Olympique de Marseille welcomes Montpellier for the 23rd day of Ligue 1, this Sunday (8:45 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
History will remember that it was against Montpellier, a club he knows like the back of his hand, that Jean-Louis Gasset began his mandate on the bench of Olympique de Marseille as number 1. The new coach of OM spent several chapters of his career in Hérault. This match will therefore have a special flavor for him, at the end of a very hectic week, between his induction and the European match against Shakhtar Donetsk.
Above all, OM has no time to lose. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s teammates must absolutely raise the bar so as not to lower their objectives. The reception of Montpellier looks like an ideal opportunity, since Michel Der Zakarian’s team has also been in difficulty since the start of this return phase. Stuck in the soft underbelly, in 14th place, the MHSC approaches this match with the idea of making a coup after having revolted the week against Metz (3-0).
The expected compositions:
Marseille : Lopez – Mbemba, Gigot (c), Balerdi – Garcia, Veretout, Kondogbia, Merlin – Harit – Moumbagna, Aubameyang.
Montpellier : Lecomte – Hefti, Sacko, Kouyaté, Sagnan, Sylla – Ferri, Chotard, Savanier (c) – Al Tamari, Nordin.
