Ligue 1 season 2026/2027 don start, and Marseille go open dia campaign for home against Strasbourg for Vélodrome tonight at 20h45.
Last season, e no start well for them. Dem bin open at Roazhon Park and that memory na bad one, because e later turn to chaos for the rest of the season.
Bruno Genesio and im boys dey hope say this time dem go take better start. But the atmosphere no too smooth, because during the transfer window, dem no fit bring any new player. The club get financial wahala.
Even though dem no add new faces, the squad still dey competitive. Just take look at the starting lineup wey dem expect for tonight, and you go see say the team get quality. Plenty key players no dey, like Balerdi, Koum, Meïté, Moumbagna, and Timber, but the ones wey go play still get muscle.
For goalkeeper, De Lange go stand between the posts, while the defence go be four men. Captain Weah go dey for right back, Emerson for left back, and Egan-Riley plus Kondogbia go hold the center. Kondogbia get small doubt during the week but e go play.
Di formation na 4-2-3-1. For the double pivot, Abdelli go join Højbjerg, wey dem take off captain from am because e refuse to go Newcastle. That one na big issue. For the attack, Harit go play for right side, with the sharp Paixao on the left. Gomes go dey for the middle, behind the main striker wey be Amine Gouiri.
Over to Strasbourg, the side dey in trouble. Dia preparation no too good, and dem lose plenty key players during transfer. Dem even change coach. Hugo Oliveira don take over from Gary O’Neil, and im likely go use same 4-2-3-1 formation.
Between the posts, Jörgensen wey dem loan from Chelsea go start. Captain Doué go dey for right back. Högsberg and Omobamidele go form center defense, while Del Blanco go take left back. For the middle, Sousa and El-Mourabet go dey there. For the attack, the new signing Reyna go be the main playmaker, with Amo-Ameyam on right and Nanasi on left. Upfront, Mara go lead the attack.
