Olympique de Marseille no longer has a choice. Beaten five times in a row in all competitions and stuck in 17the
place in Ligue 1, the Olympian club must return to victory in order to stave off the crisis brewing among the Ciel et Blanc. After a particularly arduous schedule, including Rennes, Lille, Monaco and PSG on the program, the trip to Troyes appears to be a godsend.
But while it should have allowed the Marseillais to get their heads back on track, the international break has complicated things a little more. Blame it on the incredible series of injuries that have struck Olympian internationals all over the world. Derek Cornelius is on the sidelines until 2027, Pierre-Emile Hojberg will miss several matches and Amine Gouiri is uncertain for the recovery.
The situation is such that Eric Di Meco fears the worst in Aube. “It’s a personal feeling, but I see this match against Troyes coming and I’m ch… over it, he confided in the Super Moscato Show on RMC. Everything that OM did well against PSG in Rennes before the break is so far away that you forget. I only have the negative in mind because we only lost! »
“Troyes will have the knife between its teeth”
“There are some who got injured, others who will come back but we wonder if they will be 100%. Out of the next four opponents, Troyes is supposed to be the weaker team as they have just one more point. But I’m ch… over it”he insisted while OM also lost last week against Montpellier in a friendly match.
“You won’t have all your strength to go there and they will have the knife between their teeth. In addition, OM is practically obliged to win. If you come out of this match with a draw, I don’t know how we will analyze this match on Monday. So I’m worried.”he concluded.
