OM’s strong start meets PSG’s challenge

Following a mixed start to the season, the Olympique de Marseille has found its rhythm, stringing together victories to top the Ligue 1 table. The team aims to maintain this momentum as they head to Lens this Saturday evening.

PSG’s pursuit and expert predictions

Paris Saint-Germain, however, looms large as a contender, potentially reclaiming the top spot temporarily after their afternoon match against Stade Brestois. Former player Bruno Germain remains skeptical, suggesting Roberto De Zerbi’s squad may struggle to sustain a title challenge throughout the season.

Speculations on OM’s staying power

Germain, now the sporting director at US Orléans, shared his thoughts: “I hope I’m wrong because I have a soft spot for Marseille, but I don’t see OM staying ahead for long. The gap might be smaller than in previous years, but if Paris recovers its injured players, it won’t be close,” he remarked, drawing from his experience with both clubs.

The early season excitement

The excitement is palpable as Marseille leads PSG by one point after eight matches. Despite their victory in the September Classic at the Orange Vélodrome, the real test awaits on February 8th when they visit Parc des Princes for the return fixture.
