Team News

Brest
Marseille
  • Hugo Magnetti is suspended from the end of last season.
  • Pierre Lees-Melou has been lacking game-time in pre-season and is likely to start the game on the bench.
  • New striker signing Ludovic Ajorque is not fully fit, but got some valuable minutes in Les Pirates' friendly against Newcastle United.
  • Jéremy Le Douaron was repositioned up front against Newcastle
  • Jordan Amavi looks set to face his former side after joining Brest permanently this summer.
  • Lilian Brassier won't be available against his former club due to suspension, along with the suspension of Geoffroy Kondogbia.
  • Mason Greenwood looks set to make his Ligue 1 debut against Brest.

Prediction

  • Olympique de Marseille's new era under Roberto De Zerbi kicks off, as Les Olympiens face a tough test in Stade Brestois who are gearing up for their first-ever Champions League campaign this season. Brest won their most recent Ligue 1 match against Marseille (1-0 in February at home) and can win two games in a row against OM for the second time in their history in the top-flight after 1980-1984.
  • Expect a tight game between the two sides, with Roy's side looking to pounce on the counter-attack after soaking up some typical De Zerbi possession-play.
