Marseille vs Ajax Match Preview and Team News
Marseille
Marseille are currently 12th in the league, having won one of their last five league games. However, they are top of their Europa League group table, one point ahead of 2nd-placed Brighton & Hove Albion. They drew 3-3 against Ajax in the reverse fixture. They have Gennaro Gattuso as manager now, following a tumultuous start to their season. Gattuso has had spells at clubs like AC Milan, Napoli and Valencia as manager, but has struggled to last long at one particular club. Joaquin Correa enjoys the pitch, and when he receives the ball and moves towards the goal, the opponent has problems. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang strengthened Marseille in the summer transfer window, a lot is expected from the Gabonese to help the team with his experience, and the fans were impatiently waiting for his signature. The bench players are expected to show as much as possible and impose themselves on the coach for the starting lineup. There aren’t many personnel worries, with just the lone fitness concern for the Marseille gaffer Gennaro Gattuso to be concerned about from a near full-strength set of players. Valentin Rongier (Broken kneecap) is out of contention.
Ajax
Ajax, on the other hand, ranks eighth in the league and is at the bottom of its Europa League group. They have endured a disastrous start to the season and are still in the process of regaining some good form. John van ‘t Schip was appointed boss after Maurice Steijn’s poor start at the helm, and he managed to somewhat stabilize the ship. After Ajax’s recent success under Erik ten Hag, their form since his departure has been worrying to say the least. Attacker Chuba Akpom has scored five goals in two league starts for Ajax this season. Striker Brian Brobbey has managed seven goal contributions in 11 league starts for Ajax this season. Steven Bergwijn is the engine of this team, his greatest virtue is speed, he has excellent ball control and can be satisfied with his performance. Brian Brobbey plays excellently, he is fast in the one-on-one game, and he is unstoppable.
