AS Saint-Etienne hosts Olympique de Marseille for the second time in three weeks in the Coupe de France. Discover the latest information on probable lineups, injuries and our predictions.
AS Saint-Etienne is in a tough situation having lost six of their last seven Ligue 1 matches. Olivier Dall’Oglio, ASSE coach until this weekend, was dismissed from his duties following this new setback at Toulouse FC (2-1). The Greens will play this meeting possibly without a main coach and with a temporary worker. The 16th in L1 will not start favorites even at home.
Olympique de Marseille finished this first part of the season second in Ligue 1. The Phocéens have regained their colors slightly at home and still display just as much accuracy away from home. It is the best team in Europe in the field having won seven of the eight trips within its reach. The latest was… in Saint-Etienne with a controlled success at Le Chaudron (0-2).
Information on ASSE and its injured
Wadji, Moueffek, Boakye, Maçon, Nade, Old, Monconduit and Briançon are injured. Information to be validated with the pre-match press conference.
Starting XI: Maubleu – Appiah, Batubinsika, Abdelhamid, Pétrot, Cornud – Bouchouari, Ekwah, Mouton – Stassin, Davitashvili
Information on OM and its injured
OM will have to do without Carboni and Moumbagna. Ulisses Garcia is uncertain just like Elye Wahi. Information to be validated with the pre-match press conference.
Starting XI: De Lange – Henrique, Murillo, Balerdi, Brassier, Merlin – Hojbjerg, Rabiot, Rongier – Greenwood, Maupay
OM will have to work hard and struggle for 90 minutes to get to penalties for us. The Phocaeans will count on this session to reach the round of 16 with a great Jeffrey de Lange.
AS Saint-Etienne, in crisis and lacking confidence, will not score at home. OM will lack realism. No goals in store for this clash in our opinion.
ASSE will experience a difficult last quarter of an hour since an expulsion will take place. We will have to monitor the defensive aspect for us, the source of many of Saint-Etienne’s problems.
