Marseille predicted XI v Clermont: Michael Murillo to replace suspended Jonathan Clauss

Michael Murillo looks set to replace Jonathan Clauss when Olympique de Marseille face Clermont Foot at the Vélodrome on Sunday. The latter is suspended after being sent off against FC Lorient last weekend. 

Having stumbled upon a winning formula, Gennaro Gattuso looks set to keep his starting XI consistent when Clermont visit on Sunday. Aligning Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Vitinha together in a 3-5-2 has reaped rewards in recent matches and the Italian technician is therefore set to once again start the pair up front. 

One difference from the 4-2 victory over Lorient will be the absence of Clauss at RWB. He will be replaced by Panama international Murillo. There will be few, if any more changes to the side that have hit form just before the international break. Valentin Rongier and Joaquín Correa remain sidelined with injuries.

Marseille likely lineup v Clermont

Pau Lopez; Leonardo Balerdi, Samuel Gigot, Chancel Mbemba; Renan Lodi, Amine Harit, Jordan Veretout, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Michael Murillo; Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Vitinha.
