Overview
- The sides meet Wednesday at the Stade Vélodrome in the league-phase’s penultimate fixture, with qualification scenarios in play for both clubs.
- Marseille arrive on a surge after a 5-2 win at Angers and a 3-2 victory over Union Saint-Gilloise that revived their campaign following a slow start.
- Liverpool are unbeaten in 12 across all competitions and have 12 points from six Champions League games, placing them in an automatic round-of-16 position.
- Mason Greenwood’s scoring run — nine goals in his last seven games — and the threat of Igor Paixao, a former Arne Slot player at Feyenoord, headline Marseille’s attack.
- Team news remains fluid, with reports of Marseille absences and doubts plus Liverpool injuries to Giovanni Leoni, Alexander Isak and Conor Bradley, while Mohamed Salah’s involvement could hinge on post-AFCON availability.
