The Marseillais could have made this trip to Switzerland being serene. Ultra-dominant in the round of 16 first leg of the Europe Conference League, Jorge Sampaoli’s men only won 2-1, leaving their Swiss opponents plenty of time to hope for qualification, Thursday March 17 (from from 6:45 p.m.).
In the end, the deal remains quite simple for Marseille: not to lose this return match in order to reach the quarter-finals. The Phocaeans will therefore have to be more clinical than in the first leg, to avoid being scared and spending too much energy, three days before an essential match in the league against Nice. Deprived of Dimitri Payet (suspended), they can count on a Arkadiusz Milik in form. Very effective in this competitionthe Polish striker scored Marseille’s two goals in the first leg.
