Prediction: 3-1
Brest
Sunday’s football game between Olympique Marseille and Brest will bring down the curtain on the Ligue 1 round 31. OM aim to build on a splendid 5-1 win over Montpellier and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach against Brest. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Mason Greenwood, who scored a brace against La Paillade, while midfielder Bamo Meite is back from suspension.
Les Pirates, on the other hand, have slim Conference League chances and given their poor defensive performance in a 3-1 loss to Lens, home win should be considered. Adding to their woes, first-team regular Abdoulaye Ndiaye misses out through suspension, while fellow defender Kenny Lala is back from suspension. When the two teams met at Stade Francis-Le Ble, Marseille crushed Brest 5-1 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.
Highlighted Player (Pierre-Emile Höjbjerg):
Born in Copenhagen, on the 5th of August, 1995, Hojbjerg has been playing football since the age of five. The Danish International spent his youth career playing for clubs BK Skjold, F.C. Copenhagen and Brondby IF. In 2012, he moved to Germany to sign his first professional contract with Bundesliga giants FC Bayern Munich.
After spending his first year playing for the Munich reserves, the midfielder made his maiden professional appearance the following season, in a Bundesliga game against FC Nurnberg on the 13th of April. Hojbjerg's next spell came at FC Augsburg, who signed him on a six-month loan from the Bavarians in January 2015. The same year, he scored his first-ever professional goal that came in a 2-1 away loss to Paderborn 07 on the 11th of April. The following season, he was loaned out again, this time to Schalke 04 for a whole season.
In a move that would mark the end of his stint in German Football, Hojbjerg joined Premier league club Southampton in 2016 on a transfer worth 13 million euros. He's currently on a five-year contract with the Saints. At the International level, the 24-year-old represented Denmark at every iteration of the youth level before making his senior debut on the 28th of May, 2014, in a friendly against Sweden.
