LYN vs MAR Dream11 Match Preview, Team News, Lineups

Marseille welcome Olympique Lyonnais for the 36th Ligue 1 fixture of the season at Stade Vélodrome, on Monday (IST).

LYN vs MAR Dream11 MATCH PREVIEW:
With St-Etienne losing 0-1 to Montpellier on Friday night, Lyon have a golden opportunity to nail down the coveted 3rd place. Unlike the other top-4 European Leagues, only 3 teams are guaranteed to qualify for the Champions League. So a lot is riding in the next three games for Lyon, and the quest starts here from this match.

Marseille are certain to finish outside the top-four. A lot was expected from them after their dream run to the final of the UEFA Europa League last season, but the Les Olympiens failed to build on that achievement.

The 1993 UEFA Champions League winner are sitting 6th on the table, 8 points behind their opponents in this game. But they can still qualify for the Europa League as Montpellier are only three points above them on the table.

Lyon:

Injured – Amine Gouiri, Marcal and Rafael will be missing the game for the visitors.
