Joined on the wire in Troyes during the previous day, Olympique de Marseille owes a revenge to its supporters. Against AS Monaco, Sunday March 6 at 8:45 p.m., the Phocaeans must win at all costs to secure their second place. In this game, Jorge Sampaoli’s players have a margin and are guaranteed, whatever happens, to stay among the top three. But at the start of a new sprint which will see him face Basel in the Europa League Conference, Marseille is at a turning point in his season.
For its part, before its double confrontation with Braga in the Europa League, Monaco is also expected. In the soft underbelly of the championship (9th at the start of the day), ASM only took two points in three games against the poorly ranked Lorient, Bordeaux and Reims. Worse, the Rock players fell against Nantes (2-2, 4-2 on penalties) in the Coupe de France. Nine points behind their evening opponents, Philippe Clement and his family must win on Sunday to stay in the race for the Champions League.
