Bordeaux-OM: probable line-ups – Daily Mercato

At the time of writing, three matches of the 20th day of Ligue 1 have been postponed due to too many cases of Covid-19: Angers-ASSE, Lorient-Lille and Montpellier-Troyes. Strongly affected by the pandemic during the holidays, the Girondins de Bordeaux have, according to the new protocol of the League, enough suitable players for the reception of OM tonight to take place. But a last minute postponement cannot be ruled out.

According to Sud-Ouest, Bordeaux would intend to come in 4-4-2 flat with in particular Benoît Costil in goal. The latter is now negative after being affected by the Covid-19 at the end of December and the Girondins have requested a derogation so that he can play, like Laurent Koscielny. Jimmy Briand and Amadou Traoré are injured while Junior Onana (hamstring) and Gideon Mensah (CAN) are also absent.

The probable composition of Bordeaux according to Southwest: Costil – Kwateng, Gregersen, Koscielny, Pembélé – Elis, Sissokho, Lacoux, Dilrosun – Mara, Hwang

On the side of OM, which has not won in Bordeaux since 1977, Jorge Sampaoli is deprived of seven players: Milik, Alvaro and Gerson (Covid-19), Mandanda and Rongier (slightly injured), as well as Pape Gueye and Bamba Dieng (who prepare the CAN). According to L’Equipe, OM could appear this evening in 3-4-3 with Amine Harit in particular in false nine.

The probable composition of OM according to L’Equipe: Lopez – Saliba, Caleta-Car, Peres – Lirola, Kamara, Guendouzi, Payet – Ünder, Harit, Luis Henrique

On the side of Provence, we are betting on the same players, but rather in a 3-1-4-1 system with Dimitri Payet in false nine.

The probable composition of OM according to La Provence: Lopez – Lirola, Saliba, Caleta-Car, Peres – Kamara – Ünder, Guendouzi, Harit, Luis Henrique – Payet

The Bordeaux-OM match will be broadcast at 9 p.m. on Prime Video and can also be followed on DailyMercato here.
