Currently 13th in Ligue 1, OL still have a chance to qualify for the European Cup and according to journalist Dave Appadoo, this would be in part thanks to OM.

OL are having a complicated season, currently 13th in Ligue 1, OL still have a tiny hope of qualifying for a European Cup and this thanks to OM as the channel journalist explains. The team Dave Appadoo. According to him, the weak competition behind PSG can allow OL to move up the standings and still dream of the European Cup. Rennes and OM missed the opportunity to enter Peter Bosz’s team.

“If OL can still believe in Europe? They obviously have to do a lot better. But OL’s best asset when it comes to taking stock is the competition. If they were in a “normal” championship, that is to say with two or three fighter planes behind Paris Saint-Germain, the question would no longer arise. She might not even arise for the Europa League, it would be complicated. The luck of the Lyonnais is the fact that the competition also has air holes, including clubs that we saw very strong like Rennes, which is going through a somewhat complicated period ”

“The competition is not irresistible”

The journalist believes that if OM had beaten Brest (1-2) or Reims (1-1) it would already be different for the OL of Peter Bosz.

“At one point, there was a hype around Lens, it just didn’t happen. OM, who had two “gift” matches at home, even if I force the line a little, finally took only one point out of six against Brest (1-2) in Reims (1-1) to finish the year. I have the impression that the competition is not irresistible, that gives OL a little chance. They are still alive, and at this point in history it is already a small miracle ”

OM and OL are one game overdue, if OM wins that would complicate things for OL. Otherwise, OL would come back to 6 points from Marseille.
