Bruno Génésio’s Marseille look to reclaim their European footing against a Paris FC side aiming for their first-ever top-flight victory at the Stade Velodrome.
Marseille sit 8th on 3 points, just one point off the European places following a mixed start. After a dominant 4-0 thrashing of Strasbourg in their home opener, Bruno Génésio’s side suffered a setback last time out with a 2-0 defeat at Monaco. The Olympians are now desperate to secure back-to-back home wins to keep pace with the top four.
Paris FC occupy 4th place with 4 points and remain unbeaten under Liam Rosenior. Following a goalless draw with Troyes, they found their rhythm last weekend in a 3-0 victory over Nice. Rosenior, the former Chelsea and Strasbourg boss, has yet to concede a goal this season and could lead the club to three consecutive top-flight clean sheets for the first time since their Ligue 2 days in 2024.
