RC Lens will have to deliver a good performance to overcome Olympique de Marseille on the 12th day of Ligue 1. The Sang et Or, already down in attack, will be deprived of several executives.
RC Lens: OM challenges RCL in Bollaert
After its victory (2-3) against FC Nantes, RC Lens hosts Olympique de Marseille this Saturday at the Bollaert stadium for the 12th day of Ligue 1. This meeting promises to be difficult for the Sang et Or, because Marseille is a formidable team. The RCL lacks offensive weapons and struggles to find the net.
Will Still, at a press conference before this poster, mobilizes his troops to put Olympique de Marseille in difficulty. “We will have to be very good, try to put them in difficulty while respecting their state of form. There is a set-up that is tactically super clean and super precise. It will be a real good test, a challenge physically, technically and tactically. On the outside, it's more than tough. “, Will Still said.
RC Lens will be greatly reduced to face Olympique de Marseille. Martin Satriano (cruciate ligaments), Wesley Saïd (quadriceps), Jimmy Cabot (knee), Ruben Aguilar (shoulder) and Ismaël Ganiou are unavailable for this poster. Jonathan Gradit and Abdukodir Khusanov are suspended for this meeting.
Abdukodir Khusanov was sent off in the 57th minute of play during the match between RC Lens and Paris SG following a tackle considered dangerous on Bradley Barcola and received a two-match suspension. Jonathan Gradit is, for his part, suspended for accumulation of yellow cards. RC Lens occupies 8th place in the standings with 17 points, while Olympique de Marseille is third with 20 points in 11 days of Ligue 1.
