Marseille is recovering its vital strength. For its Europa League semi-final return against Atalanta, this Thursday at 9 p.m. in Bergamo, OM records the returns of Quentin Merlin and Samuel Gigot, absent from the eleven during the first leg at the Vélodrome (1-1) .
The left back, who entered the second half last Thursday, honors his first start since his ankle sprain against Benfica on April 11. The central defender recovers his captain’s armband and appears alongside Chancel Mbemba and Leonardo Balerdi.
Another change, Iliman Ndiaye is this time lined up in attack alongside Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Ismaïla Sarr pays the price for this choice and is relegated to the bench, where Faris Moumbagna notably appears. The Veretout-Kondogbia-Harit trio in the middle does not move.
The OM composition: P. Lopez – Balerdi, Gigot (c), Mbemba – Merlin, Harit, Kondogbia, Veretout, Clauss – Aubameyang, I.Ndiaye.
