Gennaro Gattuso made several changes during OM’s match against Monaco.

On behalf of the 19e day of Ligue 1, OM faces Monaco this Saturday evening (at 9 p.m.). For this opposition, Gennaro Gattuso, the coach, made changes to his starting lineup.

An OM still decimated

Still deprived of the players participating in the CAN, the Italian technician notably aligned Luis Henrique on the right wing of the attack. Vitinha is placed at the forefront for what could possibly be his last match in Marseille colors. On the left, we find Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

In the midfield, there are no surprises to report. Bilal Nadir having joined the list of unavailable, the options are very limited in this sector. Geoffrey Kondogbia remains faithful to the position and is surrounded by the pair Jean Onana and Jordan Veretout.

Gattuso had to innovate in defense

Behind, and while Samuel Gigot is suspended, Meité is called upon to accompany Balerdi in the axis. Jonathan Clauss will occupy the right side, and his counterpart on the left will be Ulisses Garcia.

Obviously, Quentin Merlin, the new recruit, is not yet available. As for Faris Moumbagna, he is still at CAN.

OM’s eleven against Monaco

Paul Lopez; Clauss, U. Garcia, Balerdi, Meité; Veretout, Onana, Kondogbia; Aubameyang, Luis Henrique, Vitinha.
