Match preview
Les Phocéens welcome Reims to the Orange Vélodrome in Marseille on Sunday for this Ligue 1 match.
Last season’s Ligue 1 runners-up, Marseille, finished the season 15 points behind Champions PSG. They finished last season with a win at home to Strasbourg. The final score of the match was 4-0.
It has been a busy summer for Marseille who have spent over £50m net in the transfer market. Pau López is the most expensive signing for them this summer. The 27 year old goalkeeper arrives from AS Roma for £10.80m after spending last season here on loan.
Pau Lopez, Ahmadou Bamba Dieng (leg) and Leonardo Balerdi (shoulder) are all doubts due to injury for this match. Pape Gueye and Duje Caleta-Car will also miss the match due to suspension carried over from last season.
Stade Reims finished the last Ligue 1 season comfortably in mid-table, 20 points behind the UEFA Conference League place and 14 points above the relegation play off zone. Les Rouges et Blancs come into this match on a run of three away league games undefeated carried over from last season. Although, Reims lost their last league match of the 2021/22 season at home to Nice. The final score of the match was 2-3.
Hugo Ekitiké is likely the biggest departure for them this summer. The 20 year old centre-forward has joined Paris Saint-Germain on loan for the 2022/23 season. He is expected to make the move a permanent one next summer for £35m.
Junya Ito is the big name replacement for him this summer. The 29 year old right winger arrives from KRC Genk for £9.00m. Central defenders Andreaw Gravillon and Emmanuel Agbadou, as well as goalkeeper Patrick Pentz are the other permanent additions to the squad this summer. Maxime Busi, a 22 year old right-back, and Folarin Balogun, a 21 year old Arsenal striker, arrive from on loan.
Injuries will rule out Moreto Cassamá (ankle injury), Kaj Sierhuis (cruciate ligament) for the trip to the Orange Vélodrome.
