A real handyman in Marseille’s midfield, Matteo Guendouzi wants to believe in a rebound from his teammates after the defeat against Rennes last week: “We are preparing to win it, we are focused on ourselves before to think about the results of the four matches or to look at the results. We are at home, we are still confident, we had a week to prepare it.

With 63 points on the clock, Strasbourg remains under threat from Nice and Lens. Nevertheless, for the French technician, this meeting against OM is only a bonus: “There is no additional pressure to put on each other, what will happen will be positive and the season is already over. more than successful”
