Igor Paixao, Robinio Vaz and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang absent from Marseille squad for Bayeux Coupe de France tie | OneFootball

Olympique de Marseille visit Caen to face Bayeux (R1) in the Coupe de France round of 32 on Tuesday at 21:00, with Roberto De Zerbi omitting several players. According to L'Équipe, Robinio Vaz is not in the travelling party as his exit nears.

Days after losing the Trophée des champions to PSG, 2-2 then 1-4 on penalties, OM are seeking a reset. The tie at Stade Michel-d'Ornano, the last of the round, could be their first win of 2026 after a 0-2 L1 defeat at FC Nantes on 4 January.

De Zerbi has made several selection calls. As expected, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been given a rest after featuring against Nantes and Paris immediately upon his return from the Africa Cup of Nations. In attack, he will also be without Robinio Vaz.

The 18-year-old forward should join AS Rome in the coming days, with an agreement between the clubs reached in recent hours. Igor Paixao was also left out of the group named on Tuesday morning.

Nayef Aguerd and Arthur Vermeeren are absent as well. The former is involved in the Africa Cup of Nations semi-finals, the latter remains suspended after his red card against Nantes.
