After ensuring their maintenance last week by winning in Montpellier (2-1), the Stéphanois welcome OM with shoulders relieved of a lot of pressure. This can only be an advantage against an opponent who must take points to win a European qualification at the end of the season.
“42 points is good, beating OM is even better!”
But even if the two clubs are today very far from the head of the championship, even if the health crisis forced the meeting to take place in front of empty stands, the rivalry between ASSE and OM remains very strong. The two clubs bickered too much in the 1970s for their ultras to consider this poster as normal.
As proof of this, the banner hung by the Magic Fans in their north kop this Sunday: “42 points is good, beating OM is even better!”. All is said !
