Our prediction for this Europa Conference League match:
Marseille
Match Time & Date:
10/03/2022
21:00
Prediction: 1-1
Basel
Olympique Marseille will look to make amends for the Ligue 1 loss to Monaco when they host Basel to their Stade Velodrome on Thursday evening. OM faced no difficulties in the double-header with Qarabag, but the clash against Basel will be anything but a walk in the park for the French outfit. Both Gonzalez and Under are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Rotblau, on the other hand, did well to beat Lugano 2-0 in their last league match, but, as things stand now, Zurich are going to win the Switzerland Super League trophy. A man to watch in the away team will be Russian attacker Fedor Chalov, and we predict that he is going to prove a handful for the opposition back-line. Anyhow, a close encounter is on the cards in Marseille, and we are tempted to put our money on draw.
Highlighted Player (Valentin Rongier):
Valentin Rongier is a French footballer, who plays for Ligue 1 side Nantes as a defensive midfielder. Rongier, who was born on December 7, 1994 in Macon (France) scored two goals in 39 appearances for Nantes B from 2013 to 2015 and he made his Ligue 1 debut with Les Canaris on October 18, 2014 in a 1-1 draw with Stade de Reims.
It has to be noted that he replaced Lucas Deaux 15 minutes before the final whistle. Over the years Valentin Rongier has established himself as a first-team regular at Nantes and you should know that he made no less than 31 appearances for the club in the 2016/2017 Ligue 1 campaign.
On June 25, 2015 he extended his deal with the La Beaujoir-Louis Fonteneau outfit and his contract should expire on June 30, 2020. Valentin Rongier’s main position is defensive midfielder, but he is used as a central midfielder as well. His preferred foot is right.
Highlighted Team (Basel):

FC Basel returned to the top tier of Swiss football in 2000s to win their first league title in 22 years and go on to win it nine more times over 13 seasons since 2002. The golden times for FC Basel brought European inclusion in every season since 1999-2000 with a pinnacle being the semi-finals of the Europa League in 2012-13.
