Two big absences for OM against Lyon

Hanging on by FC Metz (0-0) on the last day, Olympique de Marseille will try to return to victory this Sunday. Currently 5th in Ligue 1, OM is playing big with a trip to the lawn of Olympique Lyonnais (8th). For this Olympico at Groupama Stadium, Jorge Sampaoli has called a group of 22 players. Uncertain for this shock of the 14th day of the championship, Cengiz Ünder was not called by his trainer. Hit in the back, the Turkish winger is not yet operational. The player loaned with option to buy by Roma is one of the most decisive Marseillais this season. The 24-year-old striker has 5 goals in 15 appearances in all competitions for the Marseille jersey.

The end of the black series against Lyon?

Besides Cengiz Ünder, Jorge Sampaoli will also be deprived of Leonardo balerdi. The Argentine central defender is suspended for accumulation of yellow cards. For this trip, the coach ofOlympic Marseille retained the young Targhalline and Ben Seghir. A victory at Groupama Stadium would allow OM to break the Indian sign. The Marseille club has not won against Lyon for two years. A success would also allow Marseille to stay in contact with the podium and prepare for another shock. The band at Dimitri Payet has indeed another perilous trip to make in the European Cup. Thursday, the Marseille club will challenge Galatasaray in Istanbul for the 5th day of the Europa League. The Marseillais have not yet recorded any victory in C3 but can still foresee a qualification for the next round.
