There is nothing like a match at the Vélodrome to allowMarseille Olympic to forget the worries of 2024. Make way for the new year and good resolutions for Roberto De Zerbi’s team. The first is obvious: after a disappointing first 4 months at the Vélodrome, OM must take the second place in home matches. The Marseille club has already started to turn things around, with two very encouraging results against Monaco (2-1) and Lille (1-1).
This Sunday, it’s not a top-of-the-table clash against a direct competitor, but a duel of extremes which will pit the Marseillais, runners-up to Paris Saint-Germain, against Le Havre, penultimate in Ligue 1. The club Normand is in great difficulty after losing 4 of its last 5 matches in the league. OM will therefore have no excuse, all the conditions are met for the Marseillais to uphold their standing.
The expected compositions
Marseille : Rulli – Murillo, Balerdi (c), Cornelius – Henrique, Rongier, Koné, Merlin – Greenwood, Maupay, Rabiot.
Le Havre : Desmas – Pembélé, Sangante (c), Youté, Lloris, Zouaoui – Kuzyaev, Touré, Kechta – Ayew, Soumaré.
Where to watch the match?
This match between Olympique de Marseille and Le Havre AC counting for the 16th day of Ligue 1 will be broadcast this Sunday on DAZN, from 8:45 p.m.
