Marseille-Nantes, the probable formations

Marseille and Nantes close the program of the 24th day of Ligue 1, taking the field at 8:45 p.m. at the legendary Velodrome stadium. Difficult moment for both teams, although their perspectives are profoundly different: the hosts, second behind the impregnable PSG, are fresh from the Auxerre knockout and must now watch out for the recovery of Nice and Monaco. The guests, on the other hand, must grind out points to keep themselves away from the relegation zone, which is just 4 points away.

Roberto De Zerbi relies on Gouiri as the only forward supported by Greenwood and Rabiot. Marseille on the pitch with the usual dense midfield, in which Luis Henrique and Merlin will act on the flanks and the Hojbjerg-Bennacer duo will represent the central dike. In defense, Kondogbia with Murillo and Balerdi in front of Rulli.

Trident instead for Nantes, with Mostafa and Simon on either side of center forward Mohamed. In the midfield ready Lepenant, Douglas and Leroux, while in defense there will be Amian on the right and Pallois on the left, Castelletto and Sow central.

Probable lineups

MARSIGLIA (3-4-2-1): Rulli; Murillo, Balerdi, Kondogbia; Luis Henrique, Hojbjerg, Bennacer, Merlin; Greenwood, Rabiot; Gouiri. Coach: De Zerbi.

.

NANTES (4-3-3): Lopes; Amian, Sow, Castelletto, Pallois; Lepenant, Douglas, Leroux; Abline, Mostafa Mohamed, Simon. Coach: Kombouaré.
