RC Strasbourg Alsace will play host to Olympique de Marseille at the Stade de la Meinau this evening to close out week six of the Ligue 1 season. Liam Rosenior’s side will be hoping to end a run of three games without a win after they fell to a late equaliser against Lille OSC last weekend.
No surprises as Rosenior will pick the same starting 11 that started in the 3-3 draw with Lille. Djordje Petrovic will be making his third appearance for Le Racing when he lines up this evening. The goalkeeper is on loan from sister club Chelsea FC, a team where last season he had operated as the de facto starting number one due to the injury to Robert Sánchez.
Another Chelsea loanee Andrey Santos will be in midfield for Strasbourg, while in attack the club would be keen to see Sebastian Nanasi continue his excellent start to the season. The Swedish winger who moved from Malmö FF over the summer has scored three in four games.
