There is nothing like a match at the VĂ©lodrome 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 VĂ©lodrome, 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.
