Marseille predicted XI v Lens: Emerson out, Angel Gomes on the bench

Olympique de Marseille are set to line up against wounded RC Lens in their upcoming Ligue 1 fixture, despite a number of player absences. Bruno Genesio has no fresh injury concerns as the team aims to continue their recent revival, having won their last four games in France's top flight. The recent 1-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen in the UEFA Europa League further underscores their current form.

Derek Cornelius remains sidelined and is not expected to return until the start of 2027, while Emerson is also absent for this match. Ulisses Garcia is expected to start in Emerson's absence, with Himad Abdelli named as the preferred choice for the No.10 role. Angel Gomes is anticipated to remain on the bench for this encounter, which is likely to feature Jeffrey De Lange in the starting lineup.

The rest of the team is expected to consist of Ulisses Garcia, Nayef Aguerd, CJ Egan-Riley, Timothy Weah in defense; Tochukwu Nnadi, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in midfield; Igor Paixao, Himad Abdelli, Amine Harit, and Amine Gouiri up front.
