OM are perhaps in the semi-final of the Europa League, but could not see the continental competitions at the next start of the school year. The Marseille team is on unfavorable waivers before hosting Racing Club de Lens on Sunday April 28, in a match between two teams urgently looking for points. On the podium last season, both Marseillais and Lensois are currently in free fall and are currently out of the European places.
Jean-Louis Gasset’s team has not won any of its last five league games and remains in two spectacular but frustrating draws against Toulouse and Nice. Seven points behind fifth place held by Nice, OM no longer have the right to make mistakes. For their part, the Lensois at least got back on track before last Saturday April 20 by slightly dominating the red lantern Clermont. But the reworked operation is identical for Franck Haise’s players, who for their part remained in four unsuccessful matches before last weekend. The Artois club has the Top 5 of Ligue 1 in its sights, two points ahead. It remains to confirm the improvement… And definitively put an end to the hopes of a direct competitor. Follow the meeting live.
