What They're Saying
Marseille manager Marcelo Bielsa (via Ligue 1): "He [Lucas Ocampos] gives us more aggression in attack, a bit more presence and a bit more depth."
Stade Reims manager Jean-Luc Vasseur: We haven't been getting good results, and as a result our confidence is very low. We need to quickly score some points and get back on the right track. We need to be much more rigorous."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Ocampos adds more dynamism to an already potent Marseille attack bolstered by Dimitri Payet. In 23 league appearances, Payet has five goals and 10 assists.
Marseille's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Mandanda; Mendy, Morel, Fanni, Djedje; Imbula, Romao; Ocampos, Payet, Thauvin; Gignac
Reims' Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Placide; Signorino, Tacalfred, Conte, Mandi; Devaux, Oniangue; Diego, Charbonnier, Moukandjo; Preville
