Marseille predicted XI v Toulouse: Robinio Vaz to start in place of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

Scorer of a brace in midweek against Newcastle United, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is set to drop to the bench as Olympique de Marseille prepare to host Toulouse FC at the Vélodrome.

Aubameyang has been favoured in the big games, but Roberto De Zerbi has also afforded plenty of chances to Robinio Vaz, particularly in Ligue 1, and so the young striker is expected to lead the line against Le TéFéCé. His fellow academy product, Darryl Bakola, who was a surprise starter against Newcastle, is expected to drop to the bench. Angel Gomes could come in in his place for Marseille.

De Zerbi is still contending with a long list of absentees. Facundo Medina, Michael Murillo, Hamed Junior Traoré, and Amine Gouiri all remain sidelined with injuries.
