This morning, supporters of Olympique de Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain should have debated the classic between the two teams. But this Monday, it is rather the decision to postpone this match this evening that is talking. Indeed, the shock between the two enemy clubs of French football should have taken place last night at Orange Vélodrome. But the weather conditions in the Bouches-du-Rhône pushed the prefect, Georges-François Leclerc, postponed the meeting as he explained to AFP: “The match is postponed, because there can be strong precipitation with significant risks of urban runoff in and around a velodrome of 65,000 places which promised to be crowded.”
A decision that was not necessarily to the taste of PSG, which wanted to participate in the Ballon d'Or ceremony which takes place this September 22 at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris. Ousmane Dembélé, a favorite, and several of his teammates are appointed, as well as Luis Enrique, who is in the race to obtain the title of coach of the year. If Dembouz is going to be in the game during the Golden Ball ceremony, it will not necessarily be the cases of the others. The postponement of the classic at this Monday, 20 hours, annoyed the plans of the Ile -de -France. On the other hand, he does not change the battle plan of Luis Enrique for the match in Marseille. Tonight, the Asturian, who will have to do without Dembélé, Goué, Barcola and João Neves, will a priori bet on a 4-3-3.
Two teams ready for battle
In the cages, Lucas Chevalier will hold. In front of him, we will find a line of 4 composed of Nuno Mendes, Willian Pacho, Marquinhos and Achraf Hakimi. To win the midfielder's battle, Paris will bet on Fabian Ruiz, Vitinha and Warren Zaïre-Emery, who will take advantage of the absence for injury of João Neves to make a place in the starting eleven. Ibrahim Mbaye will do the same with the many physical seeds in the attacking sector. It will start on the right wing, while Khvicha Kvaratskhelia will evolve on the left side. The two men will support Kang-in Lee, who will be aligned with false number 9. Despite the absences of several holders, this team will look great.
In the camp opposite, Roberto de Zerbi a priori bet on a 4-2-3-1. He will do without the injured Geoffrey Kondogbia and Hamed Junior Traoré, as well as Ruben Blanco, Pol Lirola and Neal Maupay (choice of the coach). In front of Geronimo Rulli, who comes out of a big match against Real Madrid in the Champions League, we will find a defense made up of Emerson, Nayef Aguerd (return from injury), Leonardo Balerdi and Benjamin Pavard. Facundo Medina will take place on the bench. In front of the duo Angel Gomes-Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, RDZ will trust the Timothy Weah-Matt O'riley-Mason Greenwood trio. The three men will support Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who will lead home attack during a very promising meeting (to follow live on our commented live site)
