OM under pressure against Montpellier: kick-off at 21:05 on DAZN

The Olympique de Marseille (OM) faces a crucial challenge this Saturday against Montpellier HSC, as part of the 30th day of Ligue 1. After a bitter 3-0 defeat against Monaco last week, the game against the MHSC became decisive in the final sprint for European seats. The kick-off is scheduled for 21:05 and the meeting will be broadcast live on DAZN.

Roberto De Zerbi, the Marseille coach, highlighted the difficulty of the situation at a recent press conference. “We lost five games out of the last seven. We could have had a lot of points ahead of the fourth or fifth. Players were injured, important players had a physical drop… All year round, I talked about the mentality. This is the problem that probably has not been solved. Otherwise, such differences between first and second half times could not be explained. It’s up to me to figure it out. Sometimes you have to be hard on the players. Sometimes you have to congratulate them, kiss them… We miss something, there are no other explanations. No one does it on purpose, we’re all 200% committed. "

OM, faced with a series of difficulties, will have to show character to reverse the vapor and regain confidence in the face of an adversary in difficulty. The pressure is at its peak for De Zerbi’s men.
