The clash between OM and AS Monaco, third and runner-up in Ligue 1, will close a 13e day which will also see a confrontation between two competitors for European places, Nice and OL.
The match: Marseille – Monaco
After rebounding in Lens last Saturday (1-3), OM welcomes the Monegasques to the Vélodrome, where Roberto De Zerbi’s men suffered an unworthy defeat against Auxerre (1-3) before the international break. Three points behind ASM, the Marseillais can score a big blow to steal the runners-up place from Monaco, which suffered its first defeat on Wednesday in the Champions League against Benfica Lisbon (2-3).

The player: Gianluigi Donnarumma
In Paris, beyond the turbulence in the Champions League, the question of the goalkeeper now arises. The coach of the L1 leader, Luis Enrique started the Russian goalkeeper on Tuesday evening against Bayern in the Champions League. Gianluigi Donnarumma is therefore no longer really PSG’s No. 1 and the competition is truly underway between the two goalkeepers.

The number: 1
One point separates the Niçois (5es) and the Lyonnais (6es). They meet again on Sunday afternoon at Groupama Stadium. With potential success, Pierre Sage’s players, looking for consistency in the game, could overtake their weekend opponent.
The Greens travel to Rennes on Saturday for the premiere of Jorge Sampaoli at Roazhon Park. After a defeat in his first match last weekend, the Argentine coach will aim to launch the Rennais into a positive dynamic, while they are just above the play-off place.
