2 PREVIEW : OLYMPIQUE DE MARSEILLE - GIRONDINS DE BORDEAUX Feature Preview Olympique de Marseille will hope to halt Girondins de Bordeaux's excellent momentum and give themselves some early Christmas cheer in Sunday's Stade Vélodrome encounter. There have been many long faces among OM fans in the first half of the season: a disappointing exit from the Champions League has been accompanied by unimpressive domestic form and has led to them slipping a gaping 11 points behind third-placed LOSC Lille. With their ambitions of returning to the Champions League next season already seriously compromised, drastic action was needed and taken by club president Vincent Labrune. Out went coach Elie Baup, who took OM to runners-up spot last season, with sporting director José Anigo stepping into the breach. Though he saw his team beaten by Borussia Dortmund in his opening game in charge, Anigo inspired his squad to come back from two goals down to draw at Olympique Lyonnais last weekend and masterminded their Coupe de la Ligue success over Toulouse FC in midweek. That latter triumph led to Anigo declaring that he and Labrune had agreed he would continue in his temporary role, perhaps even until next summer, until a successor to Baup is appointed. "The president spoke to me for a long time before the game. He's going to take his time to pick a new coach, it could take five months. I'm here till Christmas and I'll be here when we start again," said Anigo, who had goals from Benjamin Mendy and André-Pierre Gignac to thank for the maiden victory of his latest interim spell in the hottest seat of all at the Stade Vélodrome. "I don't know what will happen after the season resumes. It wasn't what I had planned, but I'm at the service of the club. I expect the second half of the season to be difficult, but it's a great challenge." Bordeaux will also prove a tricky test for Anigo and his side. Francis Gillot's men have quietly, unspectacularly but surely sneaked up on the rails to ease themselves into fourth place with a flawless recent series of results. A four-game unbeaten run was extended with a 2-1 come-from-behind win over Valenciennes FC last weekend, a fourth consecutive success in that series, though it may only have been a point had Cédric Carrasso not halted Eloge Enza Yamissi's second-half penalty. "We don't have a team that is going to coast through the league," Gillot said, acknowledging his team's success is the fruit more of industry than inspiration. "We don't have a team that can do things by half. We have to be at 100 percent. Each time, we've needed something to go for us: a missed penalty and a goal conceded to wake us up." They will need more than luck to win at the Stade Vélodrome where they have triumphed on just five occasions in 40 visits. However, they too had the boost of a midweek Coupe de la Ligue win, a 2-1 success at Stade Rennais FC courtesy of an added-time Jussie penalty, and Marseille would certainly love to be in Bordeaux's position, and can perhaps draw inspiration from a side which was in the relegation zone as late as Week 7 and now finds itself in fourth place. "We almost couldn't have hoped for it when you see the start to the season we made," admitted Carrasso, who this weekend returns to the club where he started his professional career. "There's a certain pride. We're going to Marseille without too much pressure. We've been able to pick ourselves up and we have a bonus match to play against OM." 12/19/2013 Ligue de Football Professionnel / Ligue1.com 2
