Tim Weah - Provides assist before injury Weah (undisclosed) delivered one assist in Saturday's 2-1 loss against Lens before being forced off in the 52nd minute due to injury.
Impact Weah offered attacking width and pace down the right flank, linking well with Mason Greenwood in the early stages to score the opener. His crossing accuracy dipped in the second half and he couldn't escape Lens' pressing back line after they equalised. Defensively he tracked runners but was beaten for the second goal by Lens' left switch. Weah was forced off in the 52nd minute after suffering an injury. The American has been an undisputed starter in the back three formation of Marseille and his absence will have to be replaced, with Amir Murillo or Angel as possible replacements depending on the system.

Benjamin Pavard - Bad outing against Lens Pavard generated an own goal and one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Lens. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 22nd minute.
Impact Pavard conceded the first half penalty and scored an unfortunate own goal in the 53rd minute which gave Lens the lead and turned the tide. The versatile defender had two poor outings against Sporting CP and Lens on Saturday, forcing him to acknowledge his mistakes and apologize to the fans on social media. Pavard had a very good start to the season but seemed a bit off his game after returning from the France training camp. He will look to rebound and regain his good form against Angers on Wednesday.

Igor Paixao - Four shots in loss Paixao registered four shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-1 loss versus Lens.
Impact Paixao came deep to receive the ball and created the opening goal for Marseille with an incisive pass into Mason Greenwood's path. He attempted four shots, a season high, and created two chances. His influence has clearly grown in Marseille's attack although he couldn't find any goal contributions this time. The Brazilian has now started the last seven games across all competitions and looks to be the main man for coach Roberto de Zerbi in the frontline, similarly to Mason Greenwood on the other wing.

Mason Greenwood - Scores clinical goal Greenwood scored one goal to go with five shots (one on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Lens.
Impact Greenwood opened the scoring with a clinical shot from the edge of the box for Marseille in the 17th minute. He was otherwise quiet for the rest of the game as Lens defended well with a composed back line. Greenwood attempted several dribbles and created two chances, but Lens gradually nullified his influence. The forward will hope to have a greater impact against Angers on Wednesday, a more favorable matchup on paper.

Geronimo Rulli - Concedes two in loss Rulli made four saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus Lens.
Impact Rulli conceded two goals and made four saves as Marseille were edged out 2-1 at Bollaert. Despite Marseille dominating possession, he faced a compact Lens defense and struggled to prevent the decisive punch in the second half. Rulli has now conceded two goals in each of his last two outings, as Marseille continue to struggle due to individual errors at the back that make it difficult for him to avoid conceding. The goalkeeper will look to earn a clean sheet in the next match against Angers on Wednesday.
