Olympique de Marseille faces Clermont for the 16th day of Ligue 1, this Sunday (5:05 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this match.
Making the pass of four to capitalize and continue to ride on a positive dynamic: that is the whole challenge of the reception of Clermont for the players of Olympique de Marseille. Gennaro Gattuso’s training has found its cruising speed in recent weeks. The new system adopted by the Italiana 3-5-2 combining Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Vitinha at the forefront of the attack, is bearing fruit on a Ligue 1 scale.
After three successes in a row, OM must therefore continue to improve. Three days later, the Marseillais will challenge Montpellier with the idea of putting in one last push before the winter break. Spending the holidays in the top 5 would be a small feat for a club which went through a real storm two months ago. But the Marseillais are not there yet. Place Clermont, an opponent whose ranking does not necessarily reflect real quality. The Auvergne club has already proven this season its ability to worry the championship leaders. PSG can attest to this.
The expected compositions
OM : Lopez – Murillo, Mbemba, Gigot, Balerdi, Lodi – Kondogbia, Veretout, Harit – Aubameyang – Vitinha.
Clermont : Diaw – Allevinah, Zeffane, Seidu, Pelmard, Neto – Keita, Magnin – Cham, Kyei, Rashani.
