The Greens have just beaten Montpellier at the weekend in the Chaudron during the 12th day of Ligue 1. ASSE's next meeting at the Stade Geoffroy Guichard will be against Olympique de Marseille. If OM is currently the best away team in the championship, they will be deprived of a major element in Saint-Étienne. Marseille supporters have just been banned from traveling on December 8.
Marseille people banned for several years
Saint-Étienne – Marseille is a historic poster for Ligue 1. These 2 great clubs in the history of French football will meet again, 2 and a half years after their last confrontation. During the latter, the Marseilles were deprived of their supporters. During the 2019-2020 season, clashes took place between Marseille and Saint-Etienne. These incidents had required the intervention of the police and, above all, this had postponed the start of the match. The people of Marseille were then sent back to the Bouches du Rhône. The last time OM supporters came to the Cauldron dates back to January 2019. The Greens then won 2-1.
Excesses on the sidelines of ASSE-MHSC this weekend
Before the meeting between ASSE and Montpellier this Saturday, supporters of the two camps clashed near the Kop Nord. The prefect of the Loire then decided to send the Montpellier residents home without them being able to enter the park. Some of them would have made the journey equipped with iron bars. These clashes required the intervention of the authorities.
