Marseille vs Panathinaikos lineups
Marseille
We have not been impressed by Olympique de Marseille's run of results these past couple of months; as they suffered six losses in their last nine matches. Marcelino Garcia Toral's men lost to Panathinaikos by a lone goal last week, and they'll hope to overturn that one-goal deficit today. Unfortunately, Marseille will have to do without Geoffrey Kondogbia, who was sent off in the reverse fixture.
Predicted lineups: López, Clauss, Gigot, Balerdi, Lodi, Sarr, Veretout, Ounahi, Bernard, Ndiaye, Aubameyang.
Panathinaikos
On the other hand, Panathinaikos have been a difficult team to beat; as they lost just once in their last 11 games across all competitions. Ivan Jovanovic's men will set their sights on a place in the playoff round as they make the trip to the State Velodrome. There are no new absentees for the visitors.
Predicted lineups: Brignoli, Juankar, Magnusson, Jedvaj, Vagiannidis, Pérez, Duricic Vilhena, Mancini, Verbič, Sporar.
Starting lineups
*Lineups will be automatically updated shortly after they're announced.
Player to watch: Andraz Sporar
To be fair, Marseille and Panathinaikos scored just one goal between them in the reverse fixture last week. However, it's worth keeping an eye out for Andraz Sporar. The Slovenian player has played three competitive matches for Panathinaikos so far, scoring three goals in the process. He was also the club's top-scorer in the Greek Super League last season, scoring 15 goals and four assists.
