The trip from Marseille to Nice is traditionally eruptive, especially from the bottle launched on Dimitri Payet in August 2021. Besides, the Olympian supporters have been prohibited from traveling on the Côte d'Azur since.
To throw a little more oil on the fire, OM tackles this meeting with the stretched nerves. Furious against arbitration, the Marseille club thundered against the whistles which he deems unfavorable, resulting in a response from the OGCN who worries about this pressure on the referee of the match, Eric Wattellier.
Marseille, however, has reasons to be optimistic, it is the best team traveling from France this season, with eight victories and only one defeat, and has five points ahead of its first pursuer, Lille (3rd), and seven on Nice (5th).
Like all Ligue 1 teams, OM is largely distant (9 pts) by Paris Saint-Germain, which could well be euphoric after its wonderful Champions League match against Manchester City (4-2), overturned In half an hour when he was led 2-0. PSG receives Reims on Saturday (9:05 p.m.) to further accentuate its lead.

Executive President Arnaud Pouille has faded on the table in Ouest-France, asking his players to “stop believing that it's Club Med!” ».
The figure: Lille, from 21 to 0
Lille remained on a record series for the club of 21 invincibility matches in all competitions. She interrupted herself in Liverpool (2-1) Tuesday in the Champions League. This momentum, with 14 games without defeat in the championship, allowed the LOSC to get on the podium of the L1, to qualify in Marseille in the French Cup (1-1, 4 tab at 3) and to offer an 8th final as a derby of the north against Dunkirk (L2).
