In the first starting 11 chosen by Tudor, it is Gerson and Cengiz Under who evolve behind the striker, Arkadiusz Milik.

In the absence of Payet, and with the departure to Rennes of Steve Mandanda, it is Valentin Rongier who will be captain.

"Dimitri is an important player, he's our captain. He's just a choice for today's game, the season is long," said the Croatian technician on Prime Video.

Tudor also chose to field five rookies, Jonathan Clauss on the right, Nuno Tavares on the left, Samuel Gigot and Chancel Mbemba in central defense, as well as goalkeeper Ruben Blanco, who replaces injured Pau Lopez.

Arrived Friday from AS Roma, Jordan Veretout is a substitute.

The OM team: Blanco - Mbemba, Gigot, Balerdi - Clauss, Rongier, Guendouzi, Nuno Tavares - Under, Gerson - Milik
