After a great start to the season, Olympique de Marseille has slowed down since the end of September. Roberto De Zerbi’s players lost to Strasbourg (1-0) then were held in check by Angers at the Vélodrome (1-1). They have the opportunity to restart the machine this Sunday evening against Montpellier (8:45 p.m.).
Third in Ligue 1, OM has 14 points, like Lille, which drew against Monaco on Friday (0-0) and Reims, which faces Auxerre this Sunday at 5 p.m. His place on the podium is therefore threatened. The Marseille club also does not want to be left behind by Paris Saint-Germain and AS Monaco.
Faced with the Marseillais, the Montpellier residents need to pick up points. They currently only have 4 and are ranked 17th in Ligue 1. Their only victory of the season dates back to September 22, against Auxerre (3-2).
The Ligue 1 match between Montpellier and Olympique de Marseille takes place this Sunday at 8:45 p.m. and will be broadcast on DAZN.
