Olympique Marseille
Olympique Marseille seemed to have taken a wrong turn in recent weeks. It all started from the 3-1 defeat against Villarreal in the 2nd leg of the Europa knockout stage. They made it to the next round alright, but they have not been the same since then. They lost back-to-back league games against Stade Rennes and most recently against Paris Saint Germain.
The 2-0 defeat to Paris Saint Germain was Olympique Lyon's latest game. In the 40th minute, Lucas Beraldo was sent off for PSG and Marseille had to complete the game with the advantage of the extra man. However they conceded 2 goals in the second half and lost the game at the end. And according to the stats, Marseille had 47% possession, 10 shots on target and 5 corner kicks. They created 0 big chances but managed to hit the woodwork once.
Olympique Marseille still have a battle ahead of them if they intend to qualify for Europe next season. It's unfortunate they have been hit by poor results in the last 2 games.
