Olympique de Marseille are traveling to Greece to kick off their Champions League campaign.
The season begins now for Olympique de Marseille. The Phocaeans are traveling to Athens to face Panathinaikos on Wednesday evening in the third preliminary round of the Champions League.
For this meeting, Marcelino should line up his usual 4-4-2, with rookies Iliman Ndiaye and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in attack, indicates L’Equipe. On the wings we could find Azzedine Ounahi and Ismaïla Sarr, while the Kondogbia-Veretout pair holds the rope for the midfield, to the detriment of Valentin Rongier or Mattéo Guendouzi.
The only absentee is Papa Gueye, suspended by Fifa, while Ruslan Malinovskyi is not registered for the Champions League.
The probable composition of OM: Pau Lopez – Clauss, Balerdi, Gigot, Renan Lodi – Sarr, Kondogbia, Veretout, Ounahi – Aubameyang, Ndiaye.
