Events
Match Events
- 0' Welcome to Orange Velodrome that hosts another battle between Olympique de Marseille and AS Monaco FC.
- 5' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Steve Mandanda suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' The energy levels are beginning to show. Rudi Garcia might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 13' Olympique de Marseille is taking the lead after the goal scored by Maxime Lopez on 13.
- 18' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AS Monaco FC that had 425 games and scored 538 goals.
- 23' AS Monaco FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Paris Brunner scoring 2 goals.

- 43' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 48' With 0 assists to his name this season, Youssef Ait Bennasser is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Olympique de Marseille.
- 53' Olympique de Marseille have won 519 goals from 467 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 58' Morgan Sanson was booked on 58.

- 65' A change in the AS Monaco FC ranks — Fode Ballo-Toure exits the field as Julien Serrano enters on 65.
- 70' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Olympique de Marseille needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 72' The whistle greets Aleksandr Golovin as he departs to be replaced by Moussa Sylla.
- 74' Lucas Ocampos catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 74.

- 84' AS Monaco FC has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
