Roberto De Zerbi’s crazy statistics with OM

Eager to play leading roles in Ligue 1 this season, OM (2^e36 pts) does not want to let anything go in this second part of the season. Saturday evening, the Marseille club took another step towards the leadership position occupied by PSG (1^is40 pts) by taking the scalp of Rennes. Mason Greenwood first responded to Arnaud Kalimuendo’s opener before Adrien Rabiot gave the Olympians victory. A masterfully gleaned success which represents much more for Roberto De Zerbi. Indeed, Olympique de Marseille planted, against the Bretons, its 38^e et 39^e goals of the season in Ligue 1 in just 17 days.

This is the first time that OM has achieved such figures at this stage under a league coach since Lucien Leduc in 1971 (40). And, this is not the only record reached by Roberto De Zerbi after the victory against Rennes. Indeed, the Marseille club has assumed its status as the best away team in Ligue 1 this season.

The success against Stade Rennais is notably the eighth gleaned by Olympique de Marseille in nine trips during the current campaign. A ratio that the club had never achieved in its entire history before. Glowing figures which support the idea that Roberto De Zerbi can lead OM to tickle Paris Saint-Germain this season.
