Player to watch: Mason Greenwood
Mason Greenwood has been in sensational form since he joined Marseille this summer. The former Manchester United midfielder has played four matches for Marseille across all competitions and has scored in all four games. He is the joint top-scorer in Ligue 1, and will look to add to his tally this weekend.
