Olympique de Marseille welcomes FC Nantes this Sunday for the 25th day of Ligue 1 (8:45 p.m.). Here is the expected line-up for the Marseille club.
Four consecutive victories, 16 goals scored, flamboyant play and newfound confidence: Jean-Louis Gasset has righted the helm of a drifting ship. Propelled onto the bench of Olympique de Marseille after the departure of Gennaro Gattuso, the French technician did not hesitate to make strong choices.
After returning to a 3-4-1-2 animation, Gasset returned to a 4-3-3 system which suits the characteristics of his players. A revival which could be confirmed against Nantes, this Sunday evening, on behalf of the 25th day of Ligue 1 (kick-off at 8:45 p.m.).
OM-Nantes, composition: Gasset has found his winning system!
Once again, Jean-Louis Gasset will have to deal with numerous absences for this meeting. Valentin Rongier, Bilal Nadir, Samuel Gigot, Simon Ngapandouetnbu and Michael Murillo will be missing for the Canaries reception. But OM should not change its recent habits, in terms of animation or in the choice of men.
Ndiaye should therefore retain his role of 9.5 behind an attacking duo of Aubameyang and Sarr. In the midfield, Veretout, in ascending form, is expected alongside Kondogbia and Harit. The Mbemba-Balerdi duo holds the road in the central hinge, while Clauss and Merlin are expected to continue on the sides. Pau Lopez will hold his place in goal.
The expected lineup for OM: Lopez – Clauss, Mbemba, Balerdi, Merlin – Kondogbia, Veretout, Harit – Sarr, Ndiaye, Aubameyang.
