Olympique de Marseille faces FC Lorient on behalf of the 4th day of Ligue 1, this Friday (8:45 p.m.). Here is all the essential information on this meeting.
Worrying and devastating for certain clubs, the international truce may have been salutary for theOlympique de Marseille. The vice-champions of France have missed their start to the season and are already obliged to react so as not to sink into the crisis. With two defeats conceded on its first three Ligue 1 games (in Rennes and Lyon, each time on the score of 1-0), OM has already toasted the jokers. The large victory at the Vélodrome against Paris FC (5-2) has enhanced the results, but it calls confirmation against another promoted, FC Lorient (kick-off this Friday at 8:45 p.m.).
To tackle this important meeting, Roberto de Zerbi will have a much more extensive group since Olympique de Marseille offered an end to the XXL transfer window by attracting weight recruits, such as defenders Benjamin Pavard or Nayef Aguerd. With a largely reshaped defense, OM must cross a CAP. The eleven presented this Friday evening will say more about its new strengths. Any other result than a success against a promoted already in doubt would be a bad signal … The rest of the menu will be much more generous, with Real Madrid and PSG on next week.
The expected compos
Whether : Rulli – Murllo, Pavard, Ager, Medina – Vermeer, Gomes – Greenwood, O’Riley, Traore – Aubameyang.
Lorient : Mvogo – Mexico, Talbi, Faye – Mvuka, Avom Ebong, Abergel, Koausi – Toumo, Soumo, Karim.
