Alexis Sánchez returns to the spotlight as Marseille faces Toulouse at the Orange Vélodrome.
In a Ligue 1 fixture on Thursday, Olympique Marseille welcomes Toulouse for the resumption of the season after the World Cup pause in Qatar 2022. Under the guidance of head coach Igor Tudor, the squad aims to secure a third consecutive victory and solidify a place in the UEFA Champions League qualification zone. Their previous encounter occurred on November 13, when they defeated AS Monaco 3-2 at Stade Louis II, with goals from Alexis Sánchez, Jordan Veretout, and Sead Kolašinac guiding the win.
Meanwhile, Philippe Montanier’s men travel to the south with momentum fading after a 2-1 loss to Stade Rennais, marking four games without a win and leaving them mid-table with 16 points.
Historically, Marseille has faced Toulouse 86 times in the French top flight, recording 41 wins and 131 goals to Toulouse’s 20 wins and 73 goals, with 25 draws. The home side has not tasted defeat in their last 16 clashes with the Violetas, posting 10 wins and 6 draws, a strong pattern against a frequent rival.
