If theOlympique de Marseille knew how to stop the hemorrhage by winning against Toulouse last Sunday (3-1), the team of Roberto de Zerbi puts the cover this Saturday with a new important meeting this Saturday against AS Monaco.

A shock against a direct competitor who looks like a turning point for the final sprint of this season since the two clubs are fighting for the dolphin's place behind the champion, Paris Saint-Germain.

Roberto de Zerbi has strong choices to make.

With which starting eleven will Olympique de Marseille show? De Zerbi must deal with a very diminished workforce. The defensive sector is the most affected with the serious injury of Leonardo Balerdi. Strong choices will be made by the Italian technician.

A completely decimated defense

To fill the absence of his captain, Zerbi should bet on Derek Cornelius, “the only business defender”. The Canadian could be supported by Kondogbia and Murillo.
“We do not have many defenders at the moment and we have players who must evolve in this position. You have to work on attitude too. We may have lacked aggressiveness. We know that there are few defenders in the team today, everyone must do something more ”, detailed from Zerbi.

This option would mean that Valentin Rongier would remain in the middle alongside Ismaël Bennacer. For the rest, Maupay could occupy the tip of the attack and the other executives are expected, from Greenwood to Rabiot via Rulli in the goals.
